### Installation and use

- Download the [latest release](https://github.com/knadh/listmonk/releases) and extract the listmonk binary somewhere.
- Run `./listmonk --new-config` to generate a sample `config.toml` and add your configuration (SMTP and Postgres DB credentials primarily).
- Download the [latest release](https://github.com/knadh/listmonk/releases) for your platform and extract the listmonk binary. For example: `tar -C $HOME/listmonk -xzf listmonk_$VERSION_$OS_$ARCH.tar.gz`
- Navigate to the directory containing the binary (`cd $HOME/listmonk`) and run `./listmonk --new-config` to generate a sample `config.toml` and add your configuration (SMTP and Postgres DB credentials primarily).
- `./listmonk --install` to setup the DB.
- Run `./listmonk` and visit `http://localhost:9000`.
- Since there is no user auth yet, it's best to put listmonk behind a proxy like Nginx and setup basicauth on all endpoints except for the few endpoints that need to be public.
