# How to self-host
<Note>
We provide support on a case-by-case basis. If you have any questions, feel free to ask in our [Discord server](https://movie-web.github.io/links/discord).
</Note>
Since movie-web has many different components, there are a few configurations of how you can host it. Each of these configurations has their own benefits, whether that be having complete control over your data or customizing your experience.
**If you don't know what to choose, go with [method 1.](#method-1-only-host-the-frontend)**
## Method 1 - Only host the frontend
With this method, you only host the essential parts that make movie-web work. But keep using the account server from official movie-web.
This method is the easiest to self-host and is recommended for most users.
1. [Set up the Proxy!](../proxy/deploy.mdx)
2. [Set up the Client!](../client/deploy.mdx)
## Method 2 - Only host the account server
If you want to own your own data, it's possible to self-host just the account server and nothing else.
This method is only recommended if you have experience hosting databases or other similar stateful applications.
1. [Set up the Backend!](../backend/deploy.mdx)
2. [Configure the Client!](../client/deploy.mdx)
## Method 3 - Host everything
If you want an instance that's completely isolated from the official movie-web. You can self-host all of the parts yourself, though this method is not recommended for inexperienced hosters.
1. [Set up the Proxy!](../proxy/deploy.mdx)
2. [Set up the Backend!](../backend/deploy.mdx)
3. [Set up the Client!](../client/deploy.mdx)
