## How to use it ## How to use it
There are two ways to host SearXNG. The first one doesn't require any prior knowledge about self-hosting and thus is recommended for beginners. It includes caddy as a reverse proxy and automatically deals with the TLS certificates for you. The second one is recommended for more advanced users that already have their own reverse proxy (e.g. Nginx, HAProxy, ...) and probably some other services running on their machine. The first few steps are the same for both installation methods however.
