    docker-compose install and unify the instruction across OS
  - To Self Host on Windows, ask to use Docker Desktop with WSL2 backend

- Use nested Tab grouping to split Docker vs Pip Self Host Instructions

- Reduce Self Host Setup Steps in Documentation after code simplification
  - First run now avoids need to configure Khoj via admin panel
  - So move the chat model config steps into optional post setup

Remote Access

By default self-hosted Khoj is only accessible on the machine it is running. To securely access it from a remote machine:

  • Set the KHOJ_DOMAIN environment variable to your remotely accessible ip or domain via shell or docker-compose.yml. Examples: KHOJ_DOMAIN=my.khoj-domain.com, KHOJ_DOMAIN=192.168.0.4.
  • Ensure the Khoj Admin password and KHOJ_DJANGO_SECRET_KEY environment variable are securely set.
  • Setup Authentication.
  • Open access to the Khoj port (default: 42110) from your OS and Network firewall.

:::warning[Use HTTPS certificate] To expose Khoj on a custom domain over the public internet, use of an SSL certificate is strongly recommended. You can use Let's Encrypt to get a free SSL certificate for your domain.

To disable HTTPS, set the KHOJ_NO_HTTPS environment variable to True. This can be useful if Khoj is only accessible behind a secure, private network. :::

:::info[Try Tailscale] You can use Tailscale for easy, secure access to your self-hosted Khoj over the network.

  1. Set KHOJ_DOMAIN to your machines tailscale ip or fqdn on tailnet. E.g KHOJ_DOMAIN=100.4.2.0 or KHOJ_DOMAIN=khoj.tailfe8c.ts.net
  2. Access Khoj by opening http://tailscale-ip-of-server:42110 or http://fqdn-of-server:42110 from any device on your tailscale network :::
