This technical documentation is the most comprehensive guide to managing and running your node 24X7. The nodes we host locally or on cloud servers are provided with exhaustive guides to help others spin their nodes. Guides on how to run the Cardano stake pool, Ethereum validator and other nodes that we host are explicitly covered.

Learn Linux basics. Begin your crypto journey with us from staking to node operator to full-stack node developer. We learn by doing things and helping others to grow with us. This is what blockchain and decentralization are meant to be.

This documentation is written after running all the commands on our systems/nodes.

If this technical documentation has helped you, please consider [staking](https://pooltool.io/pool/729bc73ff6f7cd20a412470cc585e29dfa049fea230584b7caf9d3cb/epochs) with us.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://prime-stake-pool.gitbook.io/node-setup-guide/home.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
