### Install PHP and apache2
Part-DB is written in [PHP](https://php.net) and therefore needs an PHP interpreter to run. Part-DB needs PHP 8.1 or higher, however it is recommended to use the most recent version of PHP for performance reasons and future compatibility.
As Debian 11 does not ship PHP 8.1 in it's default repositories, we have to add a repository for it. You can skip this step if your distribution is shipping a recent version of PHP or you want to use the built-in PHP version.

By default you are now on the latest development version. In most cases you want to use the latest stable version. You can switch to the latest stable version (tagged) by running the following command:
```bash
# This finds the latest release/tag and checks it out
git checkout $(git describe --tags $(git rev-list --tags --max-count=1))
```
Alternatively you can checkout a specific version by running (see [GitHub Relases page](https://github.com/Part-DB/Part-DB-server/releases) for a list of available versions):
```bash
# This checks out the version 1.5.2
git checkout v1.5.2
