hi folks, I'm a bit confused with the open source status of Prefect 2.0. this page suggests that it's possible to host Prefect 2.0 locally https://docs.prefect.io/2.10.11/host/ however, in the
PrefectHQ/server
install metadata, I see
Copy code
install_requires = [
    "prefect >= 1.0.0, < 2.0.0",
https://github.com/PrefectHQ/server/blob/c6e4627bb6d280fd76924ef245ed870089164bdb/setup.py#L7-L8 is it possible to fully self-host Prefect 2.0 yes or no?

Hi there! That repo is for prefect1 only, which is why it's pinned that way. If you install prefect2 you can start a server with
Copy code
$ prefect server start
docs on self hosting with prefect2: https://docs.prefect.io/2.10.11/host/

thanks a lot for the clarification!
