Coolify

Open source · OSI-approvedStatus: unknown

Deploy applications to your own servers with one click

Coolify is a deployment platform that runs on servers you already pay for. It builds from a Git repository, provisions databases, issues certificates, and handles rollbacks, without the per-instance pricing of a hosted platform.

For teams whose bill has outgrown their traffic, it recovers most of the developer experience while moving the workload onto a VPS.

Decisive facts

Git-driven builds with automatic preview deployments
One-click databases with scheduled backups
Automatic TLS certificates and reverse proxy configuration
Deploys to any server you can reach over SSH
Service templates for common self-hosted software

Localisation platform with in-context translation editing

Commit13h ago

LicenseApache-2.0

Tolgee's distinguishing feature is that translators work in the running application. Alt-click a string in the app and the editor opens over it, with surrounding context visible, which removes most of the ambiguity that produces bad translations from a spreadsheet.
