Contribute to the DSpace Development Fund
The newly established DSpace Development Fund supports the development of new features prioritized by DSpace Governance. For a list of planned features see the fund wiki page.
As of version 7 (and above), the DSpace application is split into a "frontend" (User Interface) and a "backend" (Server API). Most institutions will want to install BOTH. However, you can decide whether to run them on the same machine or separate machines.
We recommend installing the Backend first, as the Frontend requires a valid Backend to run properly.
Work in progress (Feedback welcome)
These installation instructions are a work-in-progress and based heavily on the DSpace 6.x installation instructions. Feedback or improvements are welcome.

At this time, installation requires checking out the codebase via Git. In later Beta releases, we will provide prepackaged downloads.
