A list of Cloudron-like services/ competitors

[adison]

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

@adison yeah, I haven't actually paid for Cloudron for ages now because I've referred so many people! (although I need to refer some more as my credits balance is beginning to get low!)

@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 Flowise

The 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]

@jdaviescoates aw. yeah, i'm gonna do my review on cloudron sometime today.

[adison]

kinda deserves it.
without cloudron, i wouldn't have a business, and i wouldn't have sutch an online presence. i wouldn't have any of that stuf.
not even jokin. i never had an online website, or could never even run a sefitient online business untill i had cloudron.

[adison]

i just made a reviw of this on my website.

@adison I'd update your blog post to make the first link to Cloudron your referral link too if I were you

[nebulon]

@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?

[adison]

@nebulon honestly, i would put something like, (domain here) manage, for the lable so that its labled

[nebulon]

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-label attribute set? https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility/ARIA/Attributes/aria-label

[adison]

ah. ok. by the way, do you guys wonna maybe see a full-on tutorial on how to set things up on the website? i can certainly make1for those who wonna know.

[adison]

hmmm, seams not many people wonna see me write a post about how to get started using cloudron. o well...guess not that many people are interested. i'll think about it, i might just do it out of boardm.

[adison]

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.

Interesting: „Zeabur can automatically analyze the code to determine what language and framework the project uses.“

[robi]

@necrevistonnezr yep, just like github can

[necrevistonnezr]

@robi well, yes, but apparently it not only recognizes the code language but can also deploy each project without a dockerfile

@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.

Also be welcome to contribute by editing the document.

Wow, this is expensive…. Chatwoot alone is 40$ / month. Not many apps (most „coming soon“). And I don’t see an email stack, backup routines, or something like that…?
