RunOnVPS sizing suggestion
Suggested VPS tier
1 GB RAM tier
This is our sizing suggestion, derived from Wallabag’s recommended RAM of 1 GB. It is not an official requirement and it does not guarantee that every workload, plug-in set or media library will fit comfortably.

Important notes
Official Docker image wallabag/wallabag is published on Docker Hub; SQLite is a supported database (MySQL/PostgreSQL also supported). No official hardware minimum stated (checked 2026-10-24); estimates based on a single-container deployment; running a separate database container raises the recommended RAM. Stars approximate as of 2026-10-24.
