Coolify is an open-source, self-hostable PaaS that lets you deploy applications, databases, and services on your own servers with just an SSH connection, positioning itself as an alternative to Heroku, Netlify, and Vercel. The platform supports deploying from GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, or Gitea using multiple build methods, manages 300+ one-click services, and handles networking, backups, and monitoring. It can be installed with a single curl command and offers both a free self-hosted option and a paid Coolify Cloud service.
