Deployment

Yes. While Potato runs locally by default, you can deploy it on any server. Run behind nginx or Apache for HTTPS, or use Docker for containerized deployment.

Potato can be containerized using a custom Dockerfile. While we don't currently provide official Docker images, you can create your own using a standard Python base image. See our deployment documentation for examples.

Yes. When deployed on a server, multiple annotators can access the same Potato instance simultaneously. Each annotator's work is tracked separately.

Deploy Potato behind a reverse proxy like nginx or Caddy that handles SSL termination. See our deployment guide for configuration examples.

Annotations are saved as JSON/JSONL files in your configured output directory. Simply back up that directory regularly. For production deployments, consider version-controlling your output directory or syncing to cloud storage.
