1. Download the latest release for your operating system and architecture
2. Stop running your writefreely server
3. Replace all files in your installation (except for the keys directory) with the ones in the archive
4. Start your writefreely server again

Upgrading from v0.14.0 or earlier

Before restarting writefreely, make sure your database is backed up, and then update it with:
