FAQ — Gramps Web VPS Hosting

Common questions, straight answers.

What is Gramps Web?
Gramps Web is the web-based frontend for Gramps, a free and open-source genealogy program. It lets you manage family trees, people, events, places, sources, media, and DNA data from a browser. Self-host it on a Cloudzy VPS for private, collaborative genealogy research.

How do I install Gramps Web?

How much RAM does Gramps Web need?
A 1 GB VPS handles small to medium trees (up to a few thousand people) comfortably. For large trees with tens of thousands of records and lots of media, 2-4 GB provides better performance.

Can multiple family members use it at once?
