I tested Coolify for a few weeks, and I can confirm that the name checks out. Highly recommend giving it a try. *** Update: I wanted to mention that adding WAF protection is worthwhile. You can route your Coolify domain through Cloudflare and utilize their free WAF protection at a minimum.

One addition: do not forget to update the password for coolify instance after you've set up HTTPS, because the first time you registered it was sent over HTTP and it is 100% logged somewhere in between your machine & hetzner instance.

That's a valid concern, thank you. If you set it up in public place, like a coffee shop where network traffic might be monitored, that could be a problem.

Can you also show in your next videos how to set up a publicly-accessible postgres instance hosted on coolify? Maybe also set up a domain name pointing to that postgres instance using cloudflare tunnel or something so that the connection string doesn't have to depend on a static IP address? I've tried and couldn't get it to work.

Hi! Can you make a video on how to setup Deployment Previews?

AWESOME TUTORIAL , it was soo helpful just a quick question what about serverless, can you have a similar DX with coolify as for example in vercel?

@RaddyDev

20 күн бұрын

In my opinion, Vercel's DX is superior. They make deploying, debugging, and monitoring your application incredibly easy. There's no need to worry about server configuration, security, or scalability. Naturally, these benefits come at a cost. Coolify isn't serverless, but there are other options that you might want to explore like SST and AWS Amplify. SST is more technical, whereas Amplify offers a user experience somewhat similar to Vercel's. Currently, I use Coolify for most of my projects and find it quite nice. However, I wouldn't personally put a big client on it.

thanks for this very instructive video. So if I got it right, you should register a domain name for the Coolify instance, and then register domain names for every app running on this instance?

@RaddyDev

21 күн бұрын

Thank you, I appreciate it. Yep, that's it. This way you can easily create websites with subdomains and also enables you to set up preview deployments for testing. Forgot to mention that it might make it easier to add WAF protection from platforms like Cloudflare.

Perfect, this is what I needed to stop feeling paranoid about Vercel. Just one question: How can we achieve the same firewall behaviour of what Hetzner offers, but on some other VPS provider that doesn't have the any firewall features, so the firewall needs to be set up manually with something like ufw. But docker exposes the port 8000 even if you block it using ufw. Any idea?

UTW can be a solution. Have a look at the article "How To Set Up a VPS Firewall?" by scalahosting as it talks about all that

Hey Raddy, you said you have three websites running on Droplet(server). How's that possible, when you have just one public ip address. Am i missing something

@RaddyDev

27 күн бұрын

Yep, that's correct, you can host multiple websites on a single server. It works similarly to using Nginx, where you can have many domains point to one server IP. Nginx then handles directing traffic to the correct website. Coolify simplifies this process as it acts like a Platform as a service. Like Render and Varcel I guess. You simply create your websites within the platform, point your domain names to hosting IP, and Coolify takes care of everything. This includes routing traffic to the appropriate website, managing SSL certificates, and more

@belonggame

@@ALVIERIDEVELOPER Coolify uses Traefik as a proxy server to route traffic; it listens to incoming requests and, based on rules you set (like domain names), directs traffic to the right web service (e.g., React app on port 3000, Angular app on port 4200), acting like a traffic manager to ensure each request reaches the correct website. As for nginx it's more barebone from the get go, but it has a bigger community and you can configure it to your needs.

Are system requirements hard or can I still use it on 1 core 1 gb + swap server if needed?

@RaddyDev

I wouldn't waste your time trying with less than the minimum requirements. The server will probably crash at some point. Ubuntu itself requires 1GB RAM and 1 vCPU or better.

why didn't you update & upgrade newly created ubuntu instance? Does the coolify script do it for you automatically?

@RaddyDev

3 күн бұрын

When I create a new instance on Hetzner, it usually comes up to date. As you SSH there should be a message that the system is up to date as far as I remember. (It's most likely on the video when i ssh). It's still a good practice to manually check and run updates. If I log in now, I am sure that there will be some updates available to install. Coolify doesn't do ubuntu updates and with self-hosting, so you'll have to do the security yourself

There is an option called Preview Deployments which does that, but only works with Github. It's disabled by default, so you just need to go to Advanced and tick the box. You can configure the domain as well. Here is what the docs are saying: "Preview deployments are a great way to test your application before merging it into the main branch. Imagine it like a staging environment. URL Template You can setup your preview URL with a custom template. Default is {{pr_id}}.{{domain}}. This means that if you open a Pull Request with the ID 123, and you resource domain is example.com the preview URL will be 123.example.com." You can also create another website on coolify with a test/development environment and connect it to the branch you want.
