+# Installation
+
+## Debian packages (no install.sh)
+
+Jabali ships as two Debian packages:
+
+- `jabali-deps` — system dependencies (nginx, PHP, DB, mail, DNS, etc.)
+- `jabali-panel` — the panel application + systemd services
+
+### Build the packages
+
+From the repository root:
+
+```
+./scripts/build-jabali-deps-deb.sh
+./scripts/build-jabali-panel-deb.sh
+```
+
+This produces:
+
+```
+jabali-deps_<version>_all.deb
+jabali-panel_<version>_all.deb
+```
+
+### Install on a server
+
+```
+sudo dpkg -i ./jabali-deps_<version>_all.deb
+sudo apt-get -f install -y
+sudo dpkg -i ./jabali-panel_<version>_all.deb
+```
+
+After install, systemd services are enabled and started:
+
+- `jabali-agent`
+- `jabali-queue`
+- `jabali-health-monitor`
