What it does
SpawnWP turns a fresh Debian or Ubuntu VPS into a self-hosted WordPress lab where developers can create isolated, disposable WP environments from a web cockpit. Build a plugin, test a theme, run QA tools, snapshot, reset or destroy the site when you’re done.
Spawn disposable, isolated WordPress test sites on your own Debian or Ubuntu server. Free, open source, remotely accessible and built for developers.

Create disposable, isolated environments without a hosted control plane, per-site subscription or lock-in. Manage Run each environment as an isolated stack. Create Choose a blueprint, PHP runtime and site name. Stay in control See updates and choose whether to share anonymous usage. ← → A lab without the sandbox tax Cloud WordPress sandboxes are useful — until the limits, expirations and recurring costs start getting in the way.
