How to install Xibo Digital Signage
Xibo Digital Signage has been developed as a client / server model.
Xibo is an open-source project which means you can download the latest version for free.
Installation of the Server
The server is a web server, and having a web server as the platform means that you could build your own on-site LAMP server for each separate site, or you can use your internet web server to allow a single Digital Signage program to be published across various sites, giving you a consistent "corporate image". Investigate web hosting for more information.
