# Deploy Glass Keep with Easypanel

URL: /templates/glasskeep

Glass Keep is a lightweight, self-hosted note-taking and organization application designed for personal knowledge management. It provides a clean, intuitive interface for creating, organizing, and managing notes, thoughts, and ideas. Glass Keep features markdown support, rich text editing, categories, tags, and powerful search capabilities to help you find information quickly. Built with Node.js and SQLite, it offers fast performance and easy deployment without requiring complex database setup. All your notes are stored locally in a SQLite database, ensuring privacy and complete control over your data. Perfect for individuals who want a simple, fast, and private note-taking solution without the complexity of larger systems.

## Installation notes

Open the web app on your assigned domain. The application uses the ADMIN_EMAILS value from this template to mark admin users. This template uses the Docker image name recommended by the upstream README and pins it to a static version tag instead of latest.For a fresh deployment, the default admin username is admin and the default password is admin. If you set the Admin Email/Username field before first start, that value is used to auto-promote the corresponding admin user(s). Create or manage users using the admin route at https://<your-domain>/#/admin. After login you can change admin settings in the Admin Panel and create additional users as needed.
