  • coolify

    An open-source & self-hostable Heroku / Netlify / Vercel alternative.

    First coolify[1] and now Tau. More competition the better for users.

    From the quick look it seems like coolify is more fully featured?

  • goqite

    Go queue library built on SQLite and inspired by AWS SQS.

  • talos

    Talos Linux is a modern Linux distribution built for Kubernetes.

    I assume https://www.talos.dev/

    Basically a small OS that will prop itself up and allow you to create/adopt into a Kubernetes cluster. Seems to work well from my experience and pretty easy to get set up on.

  • sequencer

    I like your take on this. I think K8s offers a _lot_ and it has a bad reputation because of its early days. Kubernetes has room to improve, like everything else, but the API now are becoming a lot easier to work with and the Custom Resources allows folks to extend Kubernetes.

    I still think that projects like this one come from necessity. Folks want to have an alternative for vendor lock-in.

    I'm building something like that too (https://github.com/pier-oliviert/sequencer) for Kubernetes, and it's also out of necessity.

    Vercel, Heroku and others have a lot of helpful tools that are empower developers, and I think people want to have those without being locked-in.

    It goes without saying that I'm totally bias :)

  • nex

    The NATS execution engine (by synadia-io)

    I am using nats Jetstream with nex.

    It’s a self hosted Cloudflare.

    It uses nats Jetstream , as a work around to Nat having bog / anycast , like how Cloudflare does its magic.

    https://github.com/synadia-io/nex

    You have to run it on bare metal or any cloud that supports next virtualisation.

    I use nats Jetstream listening to git repo web hooks to deploy.

  • exoframe

    Exoframe is a self-hosted tool that allows simple one-command deployments using Docker

    Before coolify there was also exoframe[1]
