Metabase is the easy, open-source way for everyone in your company to ask questions and learn from data.
- Set up in five minutes (we're not kidding).
- Let anyone on your team ask questions without knowing SQL.
- Use the SQL editor for more complex queries.
- Build handsome, interactive dashboards with filters, auto-refresh, fullscreen, and custom click behavior.
- Create models that clean up, annotate, and/or combine raw tables.
- Define canonical segments and metrics for your team to use.
- Send data to Slack or email on a schedule with dashboard subscriptions.
- Set up alerts to have Metabase notify you when your data changes.
- Embed charts and dashboards in your app, or even your entire Metabase.

Metabase can be run just about anywhere. Check out our Installation Guides.
In order to spin up a development environment, you need to start the front end and the backend as follows:
The following command will install the Javascript dependencies:
$ yarn install
To build and run without watching changes:
$ yarn build
To build and run with hot-reload:
$ yarn build-hot
In order to run the backend, you'll need to build the drivers first, and then start the backend:
$ ./bin/build-drivers.sh
$ clojure -M:run
For a more detailed setup of a dev environment for Metabase, check out our Developers Guide.
We want Metabase to be available in as many languages as possible. See which translations are available and help contribute to internationalization using our project over at POEditor. You can also check out our policies on translations.
