Assuming you have PHP and a web server installed, the installation steps are quite simple.
This video shows the installation process of a standalone LibreSpeed server: Quick start installation guide for Debian 12
More videos will be added later.
A template to build an Android client for your LibreSpeed installation is available here.
A command line client is available here.
A docker image is available on GitHub, check our docker documentation for more info about it.
The image is built every week to include an updated version of the ipinfo-DB used for ISP detection. Also this ensures, that the latest security patches in PHP are installed. Therefore we recommend to use the latest
image.

repo, maintained by Maddie Zhan.
A Rust implementation is available in the speedtest-rust
repo, maintained by Sudo Dios.
A partial Node.js implementation is available in the node
