Have you checked out Dokku [0] or others like it?

If so, what do you perceive as the gaps between Dokku and Platform.sh? I ask as an employee of a PaaS (not Platform.sh). So I'm curious for discovery and learning.

I tried it once and concluded it wasn't good enough but I don't remember the specific gaps. Now that I browse the docs it actually looks quite powerful, so I guess I will have to take another look.

Other contenders are CapRover and Coolify that I just recently got to know here.

I guess it would make more sense to contribute to one of these projects than start a new project.

What PaaS are you working at?

I work at Aptible. We've been around for about 10 years, have about 300 customers, all companies that prioritize reliability, scalability, and security. Many are late stage startups/recently minted unicorns....but nobody has really heard of us.

If you want I can hook you up with an extended trial, beyond what's offered on the website. I'd love your feedback. We aren't open source, though we have considered it. Maybe your feedback can help push us over the edge. My email is henry AT aptible.com.

Same offer goes to anyone here. Feedback would be really valuable to me personally.

Dokku is great, I switched to it from Capistrano and never looked back.
