How to self-host n8n
n8n can be deployed with standard Docker Compose using the Yantr app catalog. This page collects the basic information searchers usually need first: what n8n does, which Docker image Yantr uses, default ports, deployment notes, and where to find the original compose template.
After deployment, Yantr lets you publish additional ports from the stack page using Docker-style syntax. Use 8080:8080 for a fixed host port or just 8080 to let Docker assign a random port.
Use Cases
What people run it for
- Automate notifications by connecting services - get Slack alerts when GitHub issues are created or when a sensor triggers.
- Sync data between apps - automatically copy new rows from Airtable to Google Sheets, or backup form submissions to a database.
- Create self-service portals - let users trigger predefined workflows without technical knowledge.
- Build AI workflows - chain LLM calls, vector databases, and other AI services for document processing or chatbots.
