## Documentation

# Deploy and Host Telegram Desktop in your browser on Railway

The Telegram Desktop app running in the cloud and streamed to any browser. Stay signed in on an always-on session you can open from any computer, with your session and downloads kept on a volume.

## About Hosting Telegram Desktop in your browser

The template runs the open source LinuxServer.io image `telegram:latest` as one Railway service. Telegram Desktop runs inside a minimal desktop and is streamed to your browser over Railway's HTTPS domain on port 3000. HTTP basic auth protects it with `CUSTOM_USER` and a generated `PASSWORD` that you copy from the service Variables. A volume is mounted at `/config`, so your session, downloads and settings survive restarts and redeploys. The first boot takes a minute or two.

## Common Use Cases

- An always-on Telegram desktop session you can open from any device
- Using Telegram on computers where you cannot install apps
- Keeping large downloads and files in the cloud instead of on your laptop

## Dependencies for Telegram Desktop in your browser Hosting

- No other services: one container plus a volume
- Any modern browser on the device you open it from

### Implementation Details

Open the Railway domain and sign in with `CUSTOM_USER` and `PASSWORD`; Telegram Desktop opens full screen. Upload and download files and copy and paste between your device and the cloud through the side panel. Give the service at least 1 GB of memory.
