Self-host MooshieUI with Docker
Run the built-in web server in a container and reach the same interface from any device on your network: desktop, laptop, or phone. One file, one command.
Install the prerequisites
You'll need Docker and Compose. For GPU-accelerated generation on an NVIDIA card, add the container toolkit. CPU-only works too, just slower.
Docker Engine
Runs the container. Desktop or CLI both work. get Docker
Docker Compose v2
Ships with recent Docker. Brings the stack up in one command. Compose docs
NVIDIA Container Toolkit
Optional. Exposes your GPU to the container for fast generation. toolkit setup
Clone the repository
The compose file lives in the repo. Grab the source and move into it.
$ git clone https://github.com/Mooshieblob1/MooshieUI.git
$ cd MooshieUIConfigure the compose file
A starter docker-compose.yml is included. Mount a host folder for your models and outputs so they survive container rebuilds, and pick the port you want to serve on.
$ services:
$ mooshieui:
$ image: ghcr.io/mooshieblob1/mooshieui:latest
$ ports: ["8188:8188"]
$ volumes: ["./data:/app/data"]Bring the stack up
Build and start the server in the background. The first launch pulls the image and runs the same setup wizard that installs ComfyUI and PyTorch into the mounted data volume.
$ docker compose up -dOpen it anywhere on your network
Browse to the server from the host machine, then reach it from any other device on your LAN using the host's IP address. The UI is responsive down to phone screens.
$ http://localhost:8188
