## Common questions

### Can self-hosters skip the Vikunja frontend if they mainly use the mobile app?

Yes. The backend is required, while the frontend is not, and using Vikunja via the mobile app is fine.

### What environment setting can cause broken links or login flows in the frontend?

Set VIKUNJA_SERVICE_PUBLICURL to the exact address you will open in your browser. If it is wrong, links, login flows, or requests may point to the wrong host.

### What must be installed before building or starting the frontend from source?

Run pnpm install before building or starting the frontend. If you skip it, the app can fail because required files are missing.

### Is running Vikunja under a subpath reliable?

Users have reported persistent configuration problems when running Vikunja under a subpath, rather than on a separate subdomain.
