📚 Documentation

Installing Pontoon

If you are looking to host your own instance of Pontoon, follow our Deployment Documentation. It describes how Mozilla deploys Pontoon — as a Docker image running on Google Cloud Platform — so you may need to adapt it for your own platform.

If you only want to deploy a local instance of Pontoon, for development or testing for example, see our Developer Setup. Please note that the development setup is not suitable for production use.
