What it is
A self-hostable platform for deploying apps, databases and services, in the spirit of Vercel or Heroku.
Good for
Developers who want a simple deploy workflow on a cheap server.
The catch
You run and secure the server yourself. It saves platform fees, not the work of keeping a server healthy.
