Coolify: Deploy apps and databases on your own servers

Added · Updated

Made by coolLabs

View profile on GitHub (opens in a new tab)

Put websites, apps and databases online using servers you control, for developers who want a Heroku- or Vercel-style dashboard on their own hardware.

What it does

Coolify is software you install on your own server that works like a hosting dashboard. It connects to servers over SSH, a secure remote login, builds your code from GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket or Gitea, and runs apps, databases and more than 360 one-click services. If you stop using it, your running resources keep working.

How to use it

Read the installation docs for requirements, optionally review the install script, then install Coolify on a supported server with the one command shown in the project's documentation. Afterwards, manage everything from the dashboard, API or command-line tool. If you would rather not maintain a server, Coolify Cloud is a separate paid hosted option.

Common use cases

  • Connect a GitHub repository and get your app redeployed automatically every time you push a change.
  • Open a pull request and get a preview copy of your site to check before merging.
  • Launch a database with one click and get generated login credentials plus scheduled backups.

Can I use this?

Installs on a Linux server you control

Requirements The recommended setup uses one server for Coolify and one or more servers for your apps. Self-hosted Coolify is open source under Apache-2.0; Coolify Cloud is a separate paid service.

Caveat Copy the one-line install command from the project's documentation or installation docs. Supported Linux distributions and minimum server size are listed in the installation docs.

Worth knowing You maintain the self-hosted Coolify server yourself. Licensed under Apache License 2.0.
