As far as i know it's barely possible to really host it yourself. I don't know the details anymore but i looked into it half a year ago and quickly gave up. Think it was severely outdated and depedency issues, not sure anymore.
I set it up using a docker image based on the older Firefox sync repo. It's outdated but it works. What I don't self host is authentication as it is way more involved than I prefer my self hosting projects to be and I'd probably end up frustrated by some little thing not working.
Ah right, authentication was the difficult part.
