Hello,

I’m a new user and have a couple of questions regarding OpenEMR:

1. It can be installed on Raspberry PI?
2. Does it support 2fa?
3. Does it have Lithuanian language translation?
4. Client portal - can be installed on a subdomain?

Thank you for your support in advance.

I assume you have already checked the user manual. Also, consider searching this forum site for various questions.

1. It can be installed on Raspberry PI?  
Yes. For example, [OpenEMR successfully installed in raspberry pi 3 with php7(!) - works like a charme](https://community.open-emr.org/t/openemr-successfully-installed-in-raspberry-pi-3-with-php7-works-like-a-charme/4564)
2. Does it support 2fa?  
Yes.
3. Does it have Lithuanian language translation?  
The user manual does. However, the software is not available in Lithuanian. However, you can help create one if you are interested.
4. Client portal - can be installed on a subdomain?  
This is open-source software, and, thus, pretty much anything is possible. However, I would only recommend this for someone with considerable web server software development experience and experience with OpenEMR – mistakes in this area could lead to introducing security flaws.

Enjoy!

Regarding Raspberry Pi support, recommend using docker for this since there is a specific docker build created for this: [openemr/docker/production-arm at master · openemr/openemr · GitHub](https://github.com/openemr/openemr/tree/master/docker/production-arm)

Considered stable (it is using production version, 6.0.0) although I haven’t tested the docker up for awhile on raspberry pi. We incorporated multi-architectural docker builds in the pipeline awhile ago for this specific purpose (as an aside, it increases the docker builds from 5 minutes to 90 minutes, so good to see it may actually be used 🙂 ).
