in fact, if i'm bein honest, i never had a website untill cloudron came around. i had no priar experience in html. we went with linode wordpress, and that had close to no security configurations. not to mention, it didn't have any hsts/default ssl. when i started using cloudron, i noticed a big differents. i had hsts, ssl, everything basically. it seams to do better than linode marketplace

Cloudron has spoiled me for it's clarity of purpose and instruction
For me too
I've looked at and tried out Dokku, CapRover, CosmosServer, Coolify, Yunohost, Sandstorm.
They each have their good points.
But overall, none come close to Cloudron as a reliable PaaS deployment.
Trying to summon the motivation to try EasyPanel, but the nagging voice in my head keeps saying "but why bother? time is precious".wrote on Oct 15, 2023, 6:46 PM last edited by@timconsidine said in A list of Cloudron-like services/ competitors:

FWIW, I found it very easy to setup. It splits things up by having the user make a Project. Then, within the Project one can add Services (primarily DBs, but also just the name for a custom App), or, you can use Templates to install a common app from a list of 242. TWO HUNDRED FORTY-TWO. Since my own coding chops are low, I opt for the Templates, and use it primarily for the Rotki app, but also the usual WP, Ghost, etc.
One thing I like about it is a page wide Dashboard which gives basic info. For me, it is often the exact info I'm curious about, so it is handy (you gotta pay to see more).

y'know, i'm thinking of posting a review of cloudron to my personal website. i actually once even tryed to get a sponcership with them because i liked what they were doing, and i never had the ability to really do anything like setup a website untill i found cloudron. in facgt, they actually power about 95% of my business and allows them to run. yeah we have some non cloudron services, but cloudron takes cair of about 95% of my business. i do remember my media guy who i won't mention actually having a referral link to his video (it was my link) in a video he did because, y'know, i thought, why not give the viewers a chance to explore cloudron, so i created a referral link. i might go ahead and do that when i make my cloudron review for my website

@scooke despite my earlier comment, I did try Easypanel.
Yes, easy to setup, and 3 apps free.Yes a large library of existing templates, but the ones that would interest me are already on Cloudron.
Interesting though that they have Langchain and FlowiseThe stand-out feature is the ability to deploy straight from a Github repo (remember though to choose Nixpack as deploy methiod - not entirely clear).
Worked perfectly with one that I tested (Libreddit), not so well with another.And Heroku package support, although I haven't tried that.
Interesting but doesn't displace Cloudron for me.

@adison nice blog post! Regarding the missing button labels, I guess those are the ones which only have an icon and no text? If so, what's the best way to add the label information to the code for blind people?
-
We usually put text labels in buttons where there is enough space. Otherwise we show an icon alone and a tooltip. I guess those button should have the
aria-labelattribute set? https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility/ARIA/Attributes/aria-label -

now that i think about it, i see (even though i'm a blind person i can still imagine seeing) cloudron as like your own wicks, your own hostinger, your own, uh, 000webhost, but its your own, and it has a lot of applications. y'know what? i think i will make a post about installing cloudron.

@jdaviescoates beautiful list, and thanks to everyone for compiling so many options here. would love to integrate more into easyindie.app (preferably ones that don't require too much command-line setup / management), it's open-source so people can also make pull requests, i can help explain how to add other platforms

️I realize it might be complex for me or any other person to integrate some of these into the easyindie.app listing, so I compiled them in simple text over at awesome-0data and added a few of my own, such as:
- libreserver: Your own personal server.
- ApisCP: Full-stack hosting platform with self-healing technology.
- CloudPanel: Run your favorite applications and frameworks without any additional configuration.
- Gardens: Host your own apps, find open-source tools, share how-to guides.
- Yacht: Container management UI with a focus on templates and 1-click deployments.
- Syncloud: Run your apps at your premises.
