Deploy and Host swetrix on Railway

Swetrix is an open-source, privacy-first web analytics platform — a cookieless Google Analytics alternative with built-in error tracking, performance monitoring, funnels, and custom events. Community Edition is self-hostable so you keep full ownership of your traffic data.

About Hosting swetrix

This template deploys Swetrix Community Edition as five services: a public nginx gateway, the web UI, the analytics API, Redis for caching, and ClickHouse for analytics storage. Only the gateway is exposed; UI and API share one origin via /backend/ routing (Swetrix v5). You get a working dashboard after deploy — register the first admin account, then further sign-ups stay blocked when registration is disabled. Optional SMTP unlocks password resets and invites; Google/OIDC integrations can be added later via env vars.
