thank you!

our Self-Hosted version was possible thanks to several contributors on our GitHub https://github.com/plausible/analytics/issues

One contributor from HN helped us reduce our script down to 0.7 KB from 1.4 KB or so earlier this year too... all contributions are very welcome!

Is there any way to self-host without using Docker?

It's possible but not officially supported. You would have to install all the dependencies on your machine and build the mix release yourself.

I've not tried it, but there is a build script for it in AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/plausible-git/

I was curious what sort of Javasript wizardy was used to accomplish this. It appears to be lots of deleted code. Still, good for the contributor! Here is the PR https://github.com/plausible/analytics/pull/68/files

Hard to trace because we have a code change and file renames in the same merge. I don't like that. Renames and white-space changes should be their own commits.
