I built a tool to manage deployments across your VPS through a web UI

What it does

QuickStack is a self-hosted platform for running production applications on your own infrastructure. Deploy web apps, databases, and more with ease, while maintaining full control and security.

Deploy databases or apps from Git or any container registry. QuickStack provides all you need from a single UI running on your own infrastructure. QuickStack covers the full lifecycle — from first deploy to day-to-day operations, team access and cluster growth. Build from any Git repo or container registry. Webhooks trigger auto-deploys on every push, served behind automatic HTTPS. Live CPU, RAM and disk metrics per app, with health checks and restart policies. Stream container logs in real time and drop into a web terminal — no SSH required. Spin up Postgres, MySQL or Redis from templates and connect them over internal networking. Add nodes anytime. Longhorn provides shared storage and…from quickstack.dev

In the maker’s words, at launch

There are plenty of ways to deploy your apps. PaaS options like Vercel or Netlify are convenient but can get pricey as projects scale. VPS hosting is cheaper, but setting it up (Linux, networking, SSL, etc.) can be daunting. That’s why glueh-wyy-huet (https://github.com/glueh-wyy-huet) and I…

  Hi HN, I am Max and I am building QuickDeploy! It lets you deploy web applications of all sorts to your VPS with one command! Here is a little showcase of the tool itself: https://youtu.be/Feauj4OaePg Under the hood quickdeploy detects the language and framework you use, so e.g. Next.js and then creates a Docker image. After that it starts the container and waits until it is in a healthy state before using a reverse proxy to redirect traffic to the app. Added benefit is the use of your own domain with instant https! I am super happy with the result and the ease of use. After…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi 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…

  Tetris in a PDF▲1,289

  I realized that the PDF engines of modern desktop browsers (PDFium and PDF.js) support JavaScript with enough I/O primitives to make a basic game like Tetris. It was a bit tricky to find a union of features that work in both engines, but in the end it turns out that showing/hiding annotation "fields" works well to make monochrome pixels, and keyboard input can be achieved by typing in a text input box. All in all it's quite janky but a nice reminder of how general purpose PDF scripting can be. The linked PDF is all ASCII so you can just open it in a text editor, or have a look at…

  21st.dev▲1,211

  I originally built this app to organize and reuse interesting React + Tailwind components I came across on Twitter, inspired by the shadcn/ui approach. Later, a friend started contributing their own components, and it got me thinking—this could grow into something bigger, like an NPM for design engineers to share and use components. Would love to hear your thoughts!
