Issue

As of now there are 0 docs on self hosting SuiteCRM. This should be #1 priority; If there's no way to self host it or it's too obscure then you essentially have to rely on someone else's server and in that case what's the point of it being open source

The best way I'd to just have a simple docker container. Aka you copy/paste a couple docker lines, and it's set up. It would save you docs and would give you a huge influx of new users because people can self host it.

Literally all of our installation docs are for self-hosting...
