Getting Started
Deploy Craftplan on your own server. No need to clone the repo:
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/puemos/craftplan/main/docker-compose.yml
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/puemos/craftplan/main/.env.example
cp .env.example .env # Fill in the required secrets (see .env.example)
docker compose up -dThis starts Craftplan, PostgreSQL, and MinIO with migrations running automatically.
See the self-hosting guide for single-container mode, Railway deployment, reverse proxy setup, and more.
Development Setup
For contributors who want to work on the codebase. Prerequisites: Docker and mise
mise install # Install Elixir, Erlang/OTP, and Node.js versions from mise.toml
mise run services:up # Start PostgreSQL + MinIO + Mailpit
mise run setup # Install deps, migrate, build assets, seed
mise run dev # Start at localhost:4000See the development setup guide for detailed instructions.
Why Craftplan?
- Purpose-built for artisanal manufacturing — not a generic ERP adapted to fit; workflows are designed around small-batch, made-to-order production
- Allergen & nutritional tracking — first-class support for food and beverage producers who need to track ingredients and generate nutrition labels
- BOM versioning with cost rollups — iterate on recipes and formulas while keeping full history and accurate costing
- Self-hosted, no vendor lock-in — your data stays on your infrastructure, backed by PostgreSQL
