Your local cloud.
A few steps away.

Choose your platform

LocallyCloud is a Linux program. It is developed natively on Arch Linux and distributed as an Arch package and as one .deb for Debian, Ubuntu LTS, and their derivatives, including WSL 2. On macOS and on Windows without WSL, run it inside a Linux virtual machine and use it from the host through a forwarded port.

Debian and Ubuntu · .deb

The .deb supports Debian 13, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and 26.04 LTS, distributions based on them (such as Linux Mint or Pop!_OS), and WSL 2 distributions based on them. Releases provide one package per architecture: amd64 for Intel and AMD processors, and arm64 for ARM processors. The package requires glibc 2.39 or later; older releases such as Ubuntu 22.04 are not supported, and apt refuses to install the package there. When a tagged release is available, download the .deb for your architecture (dpkg --print-architecture shows it). From the download directory:

Choose the command for your architecture; check it with dpkg --print-architecture.

amd64

sudo apt install ./locallycloud_0.1.0~beta.1-1_amd64.deb

arm64

sudo apt install ./locallycloud_0.1.0~beta.1-1_arm64.deb

Use the filename for the version and architecture you downloaded. The package includes SQLite and installs its required system libraries through apt, plus the recommended dbus-user-session; Rust and a separate SQLite installation are not needed. The installed command is locallycloud.

Arch Linux · x86_64

When a tagged release is available, download its .pkg.tar.zst for Arch Linux x86_64:

sudo pacman -U ./locallycloud-0.1.0beta.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Use the filename for the version you downloaded. The package requires SQLite 3.53.4 or later from the Arch repositories. The installed command is locallycloud.

Arch Linux ARM · aarch64

On Arch Linux ARM (aarch64), build the package from a source checkout with makepkg in packaging/arch; that platform is supported on a best-effort basis.

cd packaging/arch
makepkg -si

Keep one key for your local data

Generate a base64-encoded 32-byte KMS master key once, before the first startup:

Keep this key securely and reuse it for the same state directory after restarting. An unencoded 32-character string is not valid; changing the key prevents reading data encrypted with the previous key.

export LOCALLYCLOUD_KMS_MASTER_KEY="$(openssl rand -base64 32)"

Start and check your endpoint

In another terminal:

curl -fsS http://127.0.0.1:4566/_locallycloud/health

The default AWS endpoint is http://127.0.0.1:4566. Open the dashboard at http://127.0.0.1:4566/_locallycloud/ui, or inspect registered services at http://127.0.0.1:4566/_locallycloud/status.
