In plain words

Virtkick is a self-hosted cloud management platform that enables resellers to offer virtual server services to their clients. The service handles software maintenance, payment processing, and gateway fees while allowing businesses to brand the panel with custom colors and logos. Users connect their hypervisors, manage customer relationships independently, and retain all revenue from their infrastructure offerings.

    Hi HN! Porter Cloud (https://porter.run/porter-cloud) is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) like Heroku, but we make it easy for you to migrate to AWS, Azure, or GCP when you're ready. Like Heroku, Porter takes care of a lot of generic DevOps work for you (like setting up CI/CD, containerizing your applications, autoscaling, SSL certificates, setting up a reverse proxy) and lets you deploy your apps with a few clicks — saving you a lot of time while developing.

    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.
