After login you will be presented with the dashboard panel, which looks great by the way.
Here you will be able to control many of the features you need on a daily basis to keep your web running and maintained.
The first thing you’ll notice, is requiring you to setup your web server stack, and you got two options: LNMP or LAMP
What is the difference of LNMP or LAMP? Very simple explained here:
LNMP = Linux + Nginx + Mysql + PHP (Recommended of curse)
LAMP = Linux + Apache + Mysql + PHP
We recommend you to Install the LNMP stack, but is up to you.
Choose your desired version of: Nginx, Mysql or MariaDB, Pure Ftpd, PHP, phpMyAdmin and go head and click on the One Click Install.
