What hosting does Freehold CMS need?

Check the exact release before installing

At a minimum, plan for a supported PHP version, MySQL or MariaDB, HTTPS, the required PHP extensions, protected private configuration and writable storage where the selected package needs it.

Modules can add requirements, so the exact package documentation is the final authority.
