  • coolify

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

  • I use coolify myself its a caprover alternative.

  • CapRover

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

  • PikaPods founder here. Happy to hear you like the service. As for your question, the closest open source alternative I'm aware of are Caprover and Yunohost. Just not sure how maintained their apps are. At PikaPods we update and test new releases every other week, which is a major value added. You still need to maintain your own server for those, but they help manage and install apps.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc.

  • pibox-os

    📦💻 The Official PiBox Operating System

  • We run KubeSail which is free to use, and all of our featured apps are tested and tuned to run well on a https://pibox.io. Our dashboard isn't open source, but nearly everything else we make is, including the YAML configs which are used to spin up the apps themselves. Hope this helps!

  • uptime-kuma

    A fancy self-hosted monitoring tool

  • You are right. i'm already hosting k3s clusters, but I wanted to replace uptimerobot with uptime-kuma and looked for a cheap app (docker) hosting. I found PikaPods and fall in love with the simplicity of theirs service. (in k3s i'm already using helmcharts, but its more complicated.)

  • umbrel

    A beautiful home server OS for self-hosting with an app store. Buy a pre-built Umbrel Home with umbrelOS, or install on a Raspberry Pi 4, Pi 5, any Ubuntu/Debian system, or a VPS.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
