What are the requirements to set up a self-hosted Discourse community?

Hi @Anthony_Horner 🙂

If you could go into a little more detail about the type of community and set up you’re considering people may be able to offer more specific advice.

Though the [standard install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true) guide is a great place to start. 👍
