# Azure virtual machine

To deploy UI Bakery to an Azure virtual machine, follow these steps:

1. Open [Azure Portal](http://portal.azure.com/) and in the search field at the top type in `Virtual machines` and select this item in the result search window.
2. Click on the `+ Create` button in the top left corner and select `Azure Virtual machine` in the menu.
3. Select an image of `Ubuntu 18.04` or higher.
4. For the instance size, select the minimum `Standard_F2s_v2 - 2 vCPUs, 4 GiB memory.`
5. In the `Administrator account` section in the `Authentication type` menu item, select `SSH public key,` and it will generate the keys after VM creation.
6. In `Inbound port rules` leave `SSH(22)` as by default.
7. In the `Networking` tab, select existing or create a new Virtual Network and Subnet used by this VM.
8. In `NIC network security group` select `Advanced.`
9. In `Configure network security group` click `Create new.`
10. Click `+ Add an inbound rule.`
11. Add {BakeryPort} (use 3030 by default, you will need to select the same port during UI Bakery installation later) in the `Destination port ranges.`
12. In `Protocol` Choose `TCP.`
13. Click `Add.`
14. Check that `SSH (TCP/22)` is configured by default. If not, add it manually using the same algorithm as for {BakeryPort}.
15. Click `Ok` to finish creating a Network security group.
16. Click `Review + create.`
17. Click `Create.`
18. After creating and running the virtual machine, connect to it from outside using SSH protocol.
19. Run this command preferably from the `/home` Linux directory to download, install and launch UI Bakery:

    ```bash
    curl -k -L -o install.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/uibakery/self-hosted/main/install.sh && bash ./install.sh
    ```
20. Upon request, enter the previously received license code, hosting URL - Azure Virtual Machine IP address, and port ({BakeryPort} which you selected in the earlier steps 3030 by default).
21. After the installation is completed and launched, enter the bakery from a browser on your local machine at http\://{Public IP address Azure VM}:{BakeryPort}.
