Data & Analytics solution
Run Matomo Locally with FlyEnv
Matomo commonly uses PHP, a MySQL-compatible database, and a web server for local analytics development. FlyEnv manages those local services around the Matomo project.

About Matomo
Matomo is an open-source web analytics platform focused on data ownership.
Project resources
For installation commands, supported versions, and project-specific configuration, refer to the official Matomo documentation.
Typical local stack
The exact services depend on the project, its release, and its local configuration. This is a common local setup, not a fixed requirement.
- PHP
- MySQL / MariaDB
- Nginx / Apache / Caddy
- Redis
| Component | Typical role |
|---|---|
| PHP | Runs the Matomo application. |
| MySQL / MariaDB | Stores analytics configuration and data. |
| Nginx / Apache / Caddy | Serves the local analytics site. |
| Redis | May support project-specific cache integrations. |
