What's Good
Full control on your own infrastructure. Deploy any language or framework. Manages databases, Redis, and S3 storage. The UI handles what Docker Compose cannot.
The Catch
Self-hosting means self-operating. Some features are less polished than commercial alternatives. Single-server focus limits scale.
Verdict
Self-hosted PaaS that is actually usable.
