Appliku – Deployment PaaS for Python/Django
Hey everyone. I have dedicated 4 years of my life to building a solution for easy deployment of [primarily] Python and Django apps. Think of it as an equivalent of Laravel Forge/Hatchbox but for Python apps. For those who are not familiar – Platform as a service on your cloud or on-prem servers. I have posted here 2 years ago and a lot has changed since then. What's new: - New great and easy to use dashboard - backups for databases - cronjobs - stats resources of servers and apps - tons of stability improvements.

In plain words
Appliku is a deployment platform for Python and Django applications that runs on cloud or on-premise servers. It provides an alternative to Laravel Forge and Hatchbox, offering features including a dashboard for app management, database backups, cron job scheduling, and server resource monitoring. The platform is designed for developers who need to deploy and manage Python-based applications without complex infrastructure setup.

PySaaS – Python SaaS starter kit2023 · pysaas.io · ▲121Hi HN, Recently, I’ve noticed there’s a decently high barrier to entry in developing competitive, full-stack SaaS applications. Beside the standard, boring features that take months to implement, you typically have to know several languages and frameworks, and be familiar with fancy frontend styling classes. I’m working hard right now to solve this problem by building PySaaS- The 100% pure Python SaaS starter kit. PySaaS is a boilerplate Python codebase that takes care of the fundamental components standard to all SaaS applications. The codebase uses the Pynecone web framework to compile…

Talanoa▲340Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
