Manual installation
Get Alist
Open AList Release to download the files corresponding to the system to be deployed. The latest version of the front-end has been packaged with the back-end, so there is no need to download the front-end files again.
The xxxx refers to the names corresponding to different systems/architectures, generally Linux-x86/64 is alist-linux-amd64. If your glibc version is too low, it is recommended to download the musl version
When you see the output of start server @ 0.0.0.0:5244 and no error is reported afterwards, it means that the operation is successful. The initial password will be output when running for the first time. The program listens to port 5244 by default. Now open http://ip:5244 You can see the login page, please see WebDav for webdav.
