# Getting started
## Run with Docker
The fastest way to get ashim running:
```bash
docker run -d \
--name ashim \
-p 1349:1349 \
-v ashim-data:/data \
ashimhq/ashim:latest
```
Open `http://localhost:1349` in your browser. Log in with `admin` / `admin`.
::: tip GPU acceleration
Have an NVIDIA GPU? Add `--gpus all` to accelerate background removal (2.7x), upscaling (3x), and OCR (1.5x):
```bash
docker run -d --gpus all -p 1349:1349 -v ashim-data:/data ashimhq/ashim:latest
```
Requires [NVIDIA Container Toolkit](https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/cloud-native/container-toolkit/latest/install-guide.html). Falls back to CPU if no GPU is found. See [Docker Tags](./docker-tags) for details and benchmarks.
:::
## Run with Docker Compose
Create a `docker-compose.yml`:
```yaml
services:
ashim:
image: ashimhq/ashim:latest
container_name: ashim
ports:
- "1349:1349"
volumes:
- ashim-data:/data
- ashim-workspace:/tmp/workspace
environment:
- AUTH_ENABLED=true
- DEFAULT_USERNAME=admin
- DEFAULT_PASSWORD=admin
restart: unless-stopped
volumes:
ashim-data:
ashim-workspace:
```
```bash
docker compose up -d
```
See [Configuration](./configuration) for the full list of environment variables.
## Build from source
Requirements: Node.js 22+, pnpm 9+, Python 3.10+
```bash
git clone https://github.com/ashim-hq/ashim.git
cd ashim
pnpm install
```
Start the dev server:
```bash
pnpm dev
```
This starts both the API server and the React frontend. Open `http://localhost:1349` in your browser.
## What you can do
The sidebar lists every tool. Pick one, upload an image, tweak the settings, download the result.
Some things to try first:
- Resize an image to specific dimensions or a percentage
- Remove a background with the AI tool
- Compress a photo before uploading it somewhere
- Convert between formats (JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, TIFF, HEIC)
- Batch process a folder of images through any tool
- Save results to the Files page for later
Every tool is also available through the [REST API](../api/rest), so you can script workflows or plug ashim into other systems.
