## ⬇️ Installaton guides <!-- NOTE: the 🚀 emoji is used by "Getting started" on README.md -->

There are two installation guides available for beginners and advanced users.

- **Full installation guide (for advanced users)**: if you need to import an existing Matrix server's data into the new server or want to learn more while setting up the server, follow this guide.
