# GeoLite2 City Database
The visitor stats dashboard uses MaxMind GeoLite2 for IP geolocation.
## Setup
1. Create a free account at [MaxMind GeoLite2](https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geolite2-free-geolocation-data)
2. Download the **GeoLite2 City** database (`.mmdb` format, not CSV)
3. Place the downloaded file here as `GeoLite2-City.mmdb`
The file is git-ignored (~60 MB, licensed). The Docker build copies it into the container at `/app/geo/GeoLite2-City.mmdb`.
## Without the database
The backend starts but geo lookups are disabled. The dashboard shows visitor counts without country/region breakdown.
