Penpot

Setup

1. Add DNS records at Infomaniak pointing design.<domain> to the server:

   • A record: design → <ipv4>
   • AAAA record: design → <ipv6>

2. In Coolify, go to New Resource → Service, search for Penpot. Set the domain on the Frontend container only. Configure SMTP on the Penpot Backend container before deploying:

   Variable	Value
   PENPOT_SMTP_DEFAULT_FROM	no-reply@<domain>
   PENPOT_SMTP_DEFAULT_REPLY_TO	no-reply@<domain>
   PENPOT_SMTP_HOST	{{team.DEFAULT_SMTP_HOST}}
   PENPOT_SMTP_PORT	{{team.DEFAULT_SMTP_PORT}}
   PENPOT_SMTP_TLS	true
   PENPOT_SMTP_SSL	false
   PENPOT_SMTP_USERNAME	{{team.DEFAULT_SMTP_USERNAME}}
   PENPOT_SMTP_PASSWORD	{{team.DEFAULT_SMTP_PASSWORD}}

   Also set on the Penpot Backend container:

   Variable	Value
   PENPOT_PUBLIC_URI	https://design.<domain> — override the default $SERVICE_URL_FRONTEND_8080 or email links will contain the internal port

3. Set the domain on the Frontend container.

4. Deploy.

5. Register the first account. Note: there is no admin role in self-hosted Penpot — all users are equal.

6. After registering, disable new signups by adding disable-registration to PENPOT_FLAGS on both the Frontend and Backend containers, then redeploy.
