v4 DashboardCLI + Web UISelf-hosted

Media server infrastructure,
set up in minutes.

No signup for the demo. Four ready-made accounts, reset every 30 minutes.

QuickBox Pro v4 Dashboard

Hours versus minutes

A media server is never one app. QuickBox handles the rest.

Plex or Jellyfin is the easy part. The hours go into everything around it: automation, downloads, certificates, security, users and updates.

By hand

9 jobs
  1. Prepare the server: updates, users, SSH.
  2. Install a web server and a route for every app.
  3. Issue TLS certificates and keep them renewed.
  4. Install Plex, Emby or Jellyfin.
  5. Wire up Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr and a request app.
  6. Find a torrent client built for your distro.
  7. Write a service unit per app, per user.
  8. Set up the firewall, Fail2Ban, 2FA and a VPN.
  9. Update every app, one at a time, forever.

With QuickBox

3 steps
  1. Start from a fresh server

    Debian 12 or 13, or Ubuntu 22.04 or 24.04, on x86_64. ARM is not supported.

  2. Run the installer

    Download it from the public GitHub repo, then run it with your account API key.

    ./qbpro -u USER -p 'PASS' -k 'API_KEY'
  3. Install your apps from the dashboard

    Each one installs as a native service per user. Update and remove them the same way.
