CapRover : Dumb name, awesome tool

1. CapRover

   1 33 14,193 8.7 TypeScript

   Scalable PaaS (automated Docker+nginx) - aka Heroku on Steroids

   

   Finally, I kinda wonder if CapRover is still alive. As I write this it has been over 60 days since there has been any activity on their GitHub.

2. SurveyJS

   surveyjs.io featured

3. docker

   2 204 532 0.0 Go

   Discontinued Docker - the open-source application container engine (by microsoft)

   

   CapRover is an open source platform as a service. Send your code and it'll run it with docker and proxy it with nginx. I found it to be one of those great open source projects that just worked for me. No weird hacks or gotchas.

   Hugo Quick Start on Render

   

   Render.com raised their prices last year. Their "Starter" instance type (512 MB / 0.5 CPU) is $7 per month. The next step up is their "Standard" instance type (2 GB / 1 CPU) which increased to $25 per month. Most of the services I manage are too big for a 512MB instance and to small for the 2Gb instance. If you're up for a laugh go check on the pricing of their 4GB and above instances. Current pricing is here. On render.com you can only run one app (container) per service so there isn't a way to leverage extra capacity either.

5. website

   4 273 882 9.3 HTML

   Let's Encrypt Website and Documentation (by letsencrypt)

   

   Let's Encrypt. CapRover automatically configures each service with nginx. SSL certificates (on multiple domains too) are just the click of a button.
