About
Mastodon consists of multiple components, including:
- the Mastodon application software (mainly Ruby and JavaScript)
- redis
- Yarn
- Postgres
- a web server - typically nginx, but Apache also works
Files
- application: typically /home/<mastodon_user>/<mastodon> - but really, anywhere under the Mastodon user's home folder should work
- Postgres logs (usually in /var/log/postgresql)
Local Notes
- Woozle attempts to install Mastodon, several times
