Installation

SnelSLiM is a web application, it can easily be installed on cheap shared web hosting, a VPS or private (virtual or physical) server. This makes it possible for individuals, research groups, companies and faculties to deploy snelSLiM on infrastructure that suits their needs. Of course, more storage makes it possible to store larger corpora, and more CPU cores and power greatly increases analysis speed.
