MoonshedA small, self-hosted platform (PaaS) for deploying your apps.

One Go binary and SQLite. Runs on Linux and Windows, comfortably on 1 core and 1 GB of RAM.

Get started

moonshed.yaml reference

GitHub

One binary, one database

No Postgres, Redis or Traefik. The reverse proxy is built in and Docker is optional.

Native or Docker, per app

Run an app as a supervised process, like pm2, or as a container built with BuildKit.

Safe rollouts

A new version has to pass its health check before it replaces the old one. Any kept version can be redeployed.

Domains and HTTPS

An embedded Caddy server routes your domains, with Let's Encrypt or your own certificates.

Monitoring from real checks

CPU, memory, disk and network graphs, uptime and incidents from health checks, and a request log.

Backups you can read

An app backup unpacks to a plain copy of the app, its data and its env vars. Restore it part by part.

Describe your app in one file

Put a moonshed.yaml next to your code, or set the same things in the panel. A Dockerfile on its own works too.

Install it on your server
