What it does
StackShift is an infrastructure ownership platform for deploying and operating software from one control plane. It goes beyond traditional hosting by supporting hosted deployments, bring-your-own servers, bring-your-own cloud accounts, and bring-your-own outbound email providers/smtp. Teams can deploy apps, manage databases, domains, DNS, email hosting, logs, metrics, backups, billing, teams, and use AI-assisted failure diagnosis in one place.
Build, launch, and scale apps on StackShift with app hosting, managed databases, domains, compute, storage, email, and AI-assisted operations in one platform.
Connect GitHub, push code, and your full-stack app is live in minutes with managed databases, automatic SSL, and payments in your local currency. Scroll to watch a real deploy run end to end, no DevOps, no YAML, no waiting around. Authorize once and pick a repo. StackShift watches your branch and deploys on every push. We detect your framework, generate the Dockerfile, and build a container — Next.js, Go, Python, PHP and more. Your app runs on dedicated infrastructure with databases and storage ready, no config needed. A global URL with automatic HTTPS, custom domains, and real-time metrics — live in seconds. App, databases, storage, domain and region are provisioned together and connected…from stackshift.cloud

Stackdome – An open source self-hostable Railway alternative on K8sAug 2026 · stackdome.com · ▲21Hello Hacker News, this is Ashish. We started building Stackdome in 2024 as a hobby project. The idea was to package the tooling in the CNCF/cloud-native ecosystem into an opinionated platform, so that developers can get a well engineered platform without learning Kubernetes YAMLology or a dozen other projects from the CNCF landscape. Railway and Render did this well for their hosted products. I wanted to bring that level of polish and DX to something you can self-host. Stackdome uses Kubernetes underneath, but it's completely transparent to users. (I have some ideas for an expert mode…
Stack, an open-source Clerk/Firebase Auth alternative2024 · stack-auth.com · ▲144Hey HN! Happy to finally launch Stack. We made it because we like to put apps into production quickly, and authentication & user management was taking up way too much time. We have components like and that automatically adapt to whatever theme & design system you're using. Check the blog post to see the example with Radix UI and Joy UI. Also, there's an admin dashboard for monitoring and editing accounts. Stack is 100% AGPL/MIT-licensed, so you can self-host it. Cheers!

Talanoa▲346Hi 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…

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
