# DigitalOcean Droplet Installation Notes
|
|
|
|
[DigitalOcean](https://www.digitalocean.com/products/compute/) offers a pre-installed Dokku image. You can run this image on any sized Droplet, although larger Droplets will allow you to run larger applications.
|
|
|
|
> **Please disable IPv6**. There are known issues with IPv6 on DigitalOcean and Docker. If you would like to run Dokku on an IPv6 DigitalOcean Droplet, please consult [this guide](https://jeffloughridge.wordpress.com/2015/01/17/native-ipv6-functionality-in-docker/).
|
|
|
|
1. Login to your [DigitalOcean](https://m.do.co/c/fe06b043a083) account.
|
|
2. Click **Create a Droplet**.
|
|
3. Under **Choose an image > One-click apps**, choose the latest **Dokku** release for 18.04 _(version numbers may vary)_.
|
|
4. Under **Choose a size**, select your machine spec.
|
|
5. Under **Choose a datacenter region**, select your region.
|
|
6. Add an SSH Key.
|
|
* New Keys
|
|
1. Under **Add your SSH keys** click **New SSH Key** _(this opens a dialog)_.
|
|
2. From your terminal, execute `cat $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub`.
|
|
3. Copy the output and paste it into the **New SSH Key** dialog, provide a name and click **Add SSH Key**.
|
|
* Existing Keys
|
|
1. Simply add a checkmark next to the existing keys you'd like to add.
|
|
7. Under **Finalize and create**, give your Droplet a hostname _(not required)_ and click **Create**.
|
|
8. Once created, copy the IP address to your clipboard.
|
|
9. In a browser, go to the IP address you copied above and fill out the presented form to complete configuration. _Failure to do so may allow others to reconfigure SSH access on your server._
|
|
10. Once the web UI has been submitted, you will be redirected to our [application deployment tutorial](/docs/deployment/application-deployment.md), which will guide you through deploying a sample application to your Dokku server.
