Platform Support
AirTrack runs inside Docker, which means it works identically on Linux, Raspberry Pi, Windows, and macOS. Same setup. Same features. Your choice of hardware.
Supported platforms
Install Docker for your platform, then follow the same three steps to get AirTrack running.
The recommended platform. A Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 runs AirTrack quietly and efficiently, using almost no power. Set it up once and leave it running 24/7.
AirTrack runs natively on any Debian-based Linux distribution including Ubuntu, Linux Mint, and Pop!_OS. Ideal for a dedicated home server or spare desktop.
AirTrack runs on Windows 10 and 11 via Docker Desktop. Once Docker Desktop is installed and running, the setup process is identical to Linux.
AirTrack runs on macOS via Docker Desktop — Intel and Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4) both supported. Access AirTrack from any browser once it's running.
Because AirTrack runs inside Docker, you get identical behaviour regardless of what hardware you're using. Switch from a Raspberry Pi to a Windows PC and your data comes with you — just restore your backup and you're flying again.
