AdGuard Home is a network-wide software for blocking ads & tracking. After you set it up, it'll cover ALL your home devices, and you don't need any client-side software for that.
It operates as a DNS server that re-routes tracking domains to a "black hole," thus preventing your devices from connecting to those servers. It's based on software we use for our public [AdGuard DNS](https://adguard.com/en/adguard-dns/overview.html) servers -- both share a lot of common code.

<a id="getting-started"></a>
## Getting Started
Please read the **[Getting Started](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/wiki/Getting-Started)** article on our Wiki to learn how to install AdGuard Home, and how to configure your devices to use it.
If you're running **Linux**, there's a secure and easy way to install AdGuard Home - you can get it from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/adguard-home).
Alternatively, you can use our [official Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/adguard/adguardhome).
### Guides
* [Configuration](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/wiki/Configuration)
* [AdGuard Home as a DNS-over-HTTPS or DNS-over-TLS server](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/wiki/Encryption)
* [How to install and run AdGuard Home on Raspberry Pi](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/wiki/Raspberry-Pi)
* [How to install and run AdGuard Home on a Virtual Private Server](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/wiki/VPS)
* [How to write your own hosts blocklists properly](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/wiki/Hosts-Blocklists)
### API
If you want to integrate with AdGuard Home, you can use our [REST API](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/tree/master/openapi).
Alternatively, you can use this [python client](https://pypi.org/project/adguardhome/), which is used to build the [AdGuard Home Hass.io Add-on](https://community.home-assistant.io/t/community-hass-io-add-on-adguard-home).
<a id="comparison"></a>
## Comparing AdGuard Home to other solutions
<a id="comparison-adguard-dns"></a>
### How is this different from public AdGuard DNS servers?
Running your own AdGuard Home server allows you to do much more than using a public DNS server. It's a completely different level. See for yourself:
* Choose what exactly will the server block or not block.
* Monitor your network activity.
* Add your own custom filtering rules.
* **Most importantly, this is your own server, and you are the only one who's in control.**
<a id="comparison-pi-hole"></a>
### How does AdGuard Home compare to Pi-Hole
At this point, AdGuard Home has a lot in common with Pi-Hole. Both block ads and trackers using "DNS sinkholing" method, and both allow customizing what's blocked.
> We're not going to stop here. DNS sinkholing is not a bad starting point, but this is just the beginning.
AdGuard Home provides a lot of features out-of-the-box with no need to install and configure additional software. We want it to be simple to the point when even casual users can set it up with minimal effort.
> Disclaimer: some of the listed features can be added to Pi-Hole by installing additional software or by manually using SSH terminal and reconfiguring one of the utilities Pi-Hole consists of. However, in our opinion, this cannot be legitimately counted as a Pi-Hole's feature.
| Feature | AdGuard&nbsp;Home | Pi-Hole |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------|--------------------------------------------------------|
| Blocking ads and trackers | ✅ | ✅ |
| Customizing blocklists | ✅ | ✅ |
| Built-in DHCP server | ✅ | ✅ |
| HTTPS for the Admin interface | ✅ | Kind of, but you'll need to manually configure lighthttpd |
| Encrypted DNS upstream servers (DNS-over-HTTPS, DNS-over-TLS, DNSCrypt) | ✅ | ❌ (requires additional software) |
| Cross-platform | ✅ | ❌ (not natively, only via Docker) |
| Running as a DNS-over-HTTPS or DNS-over-TLS server | ✅ | ❌ (requires additional software) |
| Blocking phishing and malware domains | ✅ | ❌ (requires non-default blocklists) |
| Parental control (blocking adult domains) | ✅ | ❌ |
| Force Safe search on search engines | ✅ | ❌ |
| Per-client (device) configuration | ✅ | ✅ |
| Access settings (choose who can use AGH DNS) | ✅ | ❌ |
<a id="comparison-adblock"></a>
### How does AdGuard Home compare to traditional ad blockers
It depends.
"DNS sinkholing" is capable of blocking a big percentage of ads, but it lacks flexibility and power of traditional ad blockers. You can get a good impression about the difference between these methods by reading [this article](https://adguard.com/en/blog/adguard-vs-adaway-dns66/). It compares AdGuard for Android (a traditional ad blocker) to hosts-level ad blockers (which are almost identical to DNS-based blockers in their capabilities).
However, this level of protection is enough for some users. Additionally, using a DNS-based blocker can help to block ads, tracking and analytics requests on other types of devices, such as SmartTVs, smart speakers or other kinds of IoT devices (on which you can't install tradtional ad blockers).
**Known limitations**
Here are some examples of what cannot be blocked by a DNS-level blocker:
* YouTube, Twitch ads
* Facebook, Twitter, Instagram sponsored posts
Essentially, any advertising that shares a domain with content cannot be blocked by a DNS-level blocker.
Is there a chance to handle this in the future? DNS will never be enough to do this. Our only option is to use a content blocking proxy like what we do in the standalone AdGuard applications. We're [going to bring](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/issues/1228) this feature support to AdGuard Home in the future. Unfortunately, even in this case, there still will be cases when this won't be enough or would require quite complicated configuration.
<a id="how-to-build"></a>
## How to build from source
### Prerequisites
Run `make init` to prepare the development environment.
You will need this to build AdGuard Home:
* [go](https://golang.org/dl/) v1.14 or later.
* [node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) v10.16.2 or later.
* [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) v6.14 or later.
Optionally, for Go devs:
* [golangci-lint](https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint)
### Building
Open Terminal and execute these commands:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome
cd AdGuardHome
make
```
Check the [`Makefile`](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/blob/master/Makefile) to learn about other commands.
**Building for a different platform.** You can build AdGuard for any OS/ARCH just like any other Golang project.
In order to do this, specify `GOOS` and `GOARCH` env variables before running make.
For example:
```
GOOS=linux GOARCH=arm64 make
```
#### Preparing release
You'll need this to prepare a release build:
* [goreleaser](https://goreleaser.com/)
* [snapcraft](https://snapcraft.io/)
Commands:
* `make release` - builds a snapshot build (CHANNEL=edge)
* `CHANNEL=beta make release` - builds beta version, tag is mandatory.
* `CHANNEL=release make release` - builds release version, tag is mandatory.
#### Docker image
* Run `make docker` to build the Docker image locally.
* Run `make docker-multi-arch` to build the multi-arch Docker image (the one that we publish to Docker Hub).
Please note, that we're using [Docker Buildx](https://docs.docker.com/buildx/working-with-buildx/) to build our official image.
You may need to prepare before using these builds:
* (Linux-only) Install Qemu: `docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static --reset -p yes --credential yes`
* Prepare builder: `docker buildx create --name buildx-builder --driver docker-container --use`
### Resources that we update periodically
* `scripts/translations`
* `scripts/whotracksme`
<a id="contributing"></a>
## Contributing
You are welcome to fork this repository, make your changes and submit a pull request — https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome/pulls
Please note that we don't expect people to contribute to both UI and golang parts of the program simultaneously. Ideally, the golang part is implemented first, i.e. configuration, API, and the functionality itself. The UI part can be implemented later in a different pull request by a different person.
<a id="test-unstable-versions"></a>
### Test unstable versions
There are two update channels that you can use:
* `beta` - beta version of AdGuard Home. More or less stable versions.
* `edge` - the newest version of AdGuard Home. New updates are pushed to this channel daily and it is the closest to the master branch you can get.
There are three options how you can install an unstable version:
1. [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/adguard-home) -- look for "beta" and "edge" channels there.
2. [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/adguard/adguardhome) -- look for "beta" and "edge" tags there.
3. Standalone builds. Look for the available builds below.
There are three options how you can install an unstable version.
1. You can either install AdGuard Home from "beta" or "edge" distribution channel which we update periodically. If you're already using stable version of AdGuard Home, just replace the executable file with a new one.
2. You can use the Docker image from the `edge` tag, which is synced with the repo master branch.
3. You can install AdGuard Home from `beta` or `edge` channels on the Snap Store.

You might have seen that [CoreDNS](https://coredns.io) was mentioned here before — we've stopped using it in AdGuardHome. While we still use it on our servers for [AdGuard DNS](https://adguard.com/adguard-dns/overview.html) service, it seemed like an overkill for Home as it impeded with Home features that we plan to implement.
