Self-host the Ackee for web traffic analytics

As long as the traffic grows for my journal site, I'm curious about how many people visit my site, which posts are most visited, and where users come from. Although Google Analytics can help, almost every ad-blocker will kill it and resulting in less information. After searching for alternatives, I came across a lightweight Node.js application, Ackee. It's a privacy-first solution that provides the basic analytics just what I needed. So, let's deploy it with all the free resources.
