-description: How to install LibreChat locally
+description: Install LibreChat yourself with Docker, npm, or a Helm chart. It is a self-hosted web app, not a desktop installer.

+<Callout type="info" title="Is there a Windows or macOS app?">
+
+No. LibreChat is a self-hosted web application, so there is no `.exe`, `.dmg`, or AppImage to download: you install it yourself using one of the methods below, then use it in your browser. Docker and npm run it on your own machine on Windows, macOS, or Linux and serve it at [http://localhost:3080](http://localhost:3080); on Windows, [Docker Desktop](/docs/local/docker) is the simplest starting point. The Helm chart deploys to a Kubernetes cluster instead, and is reached through your cluster's networking.
