I'm just toying with coolify and here you are, dropping the video about it, thanks

thanks for sharing! It looks like a very handy tool when you want to manage your own server and deploy something quickly

As much as I am used to manually configuring everything this looks like a super easy and fun way to just get started with a project

Thanks a lot this feels like a lifesaver!

Great video as always, would love to see tutorials on more advanced routing strategies. Such as multiple website on same VPS and other advanced mechanism ( if it's even recommended )

I've been waiting for the Cody x Coolify collaboration for a while. Glad to see it's here :)

Nice! Basically the architecture of Dokku with the UX of Vercel. I'm a fan.

Thanks for this cool piece of information.

Gold, thank you sir

very cool, thanks for sharing!

I always wanted to use something like this.

thanks for sharing! I'm curious, when you switched to VPS, did you have to change any SST-related code like how you fetch secrets or binding resources like bind: [table]?

I too I'm wondering about the CDN. For static assets will it deploy to S3/cloudfront? This is how vercel basically works.

It is possible to customize it for the Node.js application to run in cluster mode, isn't it? I want to utilize all CPU power, previously when I deployed using pm2, there would be an additional option '-i max'

How does this compare to K3S and ArgoCD? Couldn't you do almost the same thing, with the exception, that Coolify also builds a container? K3S seems less resource hungry + you get the access to the Helm ecosystem. Am I missing something?

Network Engineer here, why use this instead of just docker itself and portainer if you want a gui? I have my own dell servers at home for fairly cheap and am self hosting everything, if I need a VM I just create it using my terraform template and it's ready to go in minutes. I feel that adding additional layers on top of the underlying technology here is a bit wasteful resource wise and docker is simple enough to learn if this is the end goal but perhaps I am missing some feature that coolify is more targeted towards.

@WebDevCody

You know when you get to that point where you’ve already spent years learning something where everything seems easy? I think you’re at that point. I think coolify is geared towards someone who doesn’t want to dive into learning docker, terraform, setting up cicd pipelines with GitHub webhooks to auto deploy on commits. I think coolify already supports scaling out to multiple nodes out of the box

Spent weeks with Traefik, I gave up and switched to HAProxy. Setting up HAProxy took a few hours, and everything worked.

I mean, hosting a single app on a vps has been easy for 10 years now ever since caddy, lets encrypt, and docker came out.

Your server can be anywhere. In fact, Coolify now offers an option to deploy your stuff to your own servers at home. Self hosting just means you manage your own software on the server, even if you are renting the server a data center. I know the term self-hosting is a bit ambiguous.
