  I then containerized the backend python code using Docker and deploy it on render.com because of how fast and easy it is.

• Coolify: Open-source and self-hostable Heroku / Netlify / Vercel alternative

  I'm sorry for being a bit off-topic, but I'm a founder of a PaaS company myself, and I think that what we offer is a great alternative to Coolify for companies that need a more "managed" and reliable infra. https://stacktape.com is a Heroku/Vercel-like PaaS platform that deploys directly to your own AWS account. It supports both serverless (lambda functions), and serverful (AWS ECS Fargate or EC2) deployments.... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Reclaim the Stack

  Since DHH has been promoting the 'do-it-yourself' approach, many people have fallen for it. You're asking the right questions that only a few people know they need answers to. In my opinion, the closest thing to "reclaiming the stack" while still being a PaaS is to use a "deploy to your cloud account" PaaS provider. These services offer the convenience of a PaaS provider, yet allow you to "eject" to using the... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Tau: Open-source PaaS – A self-hosted Vercel / Netlify / Cloudflare alternative

  > Isn't the entire point of vercel/netlify/cloudflare is that you don't have to self-host? The issue is the price of it, not the actual software. There's also a third way, which we're trying to do at stacktape[1]. We've built a PaaS platform on top of AWS, running in your own account. So you get all of the stability, flexibility and reliability of AWS, yet the deployment process is easy as using something... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
