Monitor your Accorrd stack and get real-time server stats. Manage users, guilds, and integrations.
Accorrd is designed to self-host cleanly without enterprise-sized hardware. These are the baseline targets for a modest deployment.
Enough for the core app, background jobs, and light to moderate real-time traffic.
Comfortable headroom for the API, database, cache, and messaging services.
Suitable for the app stack and early media uploads before object storage scaling matters.
A Linux host with Docker Compose, a domain name, and TLS termination is the expected starting point.
Accorrd development was tested with an import from a 10 year-old light to moderate use Discord server. The import consisted of over 283,000 messages, 28,800 attachments, 376 custom emoji, and 16 custom stickers. The total backup size was roughly 48GB uncompressed. You don't need a ridiculous amount of storage, but if you plan on importing a large Discord community, you will need to consider disk space constraints.
Building a full-featured app requires a full-featured stack. We tried to keep things as clean as possible.
Accorrd is community-driven. Whether you're filing bugs, writing docs, or shipping features — there's a place for you here.
