Plausible Analytics is an open-source, self-hosted web analytics tool that tracks traffic without cookies or personal data collection, a privacy-first alternative to Google Analytics. This guide deploys Plausible Community Edition using Docker Compose, fronts it with Nginx, and secures it with a Let's Encrypt certificate. By the end, you'll have Plausible tracking a website's traffic securely at your domain.
Configure the Environment
1. Clone the Community Edition repo:
$ mkdir ~/plausible
