Coolify

Official site: coolify.io · Docs: coolify.io/docs

Open-source self-hosted alternative to Vercel / Heroku / Netlify / Railway.

What this template deploys

Service	Role
coolify	Dashboard (HTTP 8080)
postgres	Application database
redis	Cache / queue
soketi	Realtime (Pusher-compatible)

After deploy

1. Open https://<your-domain>
2. Create the first admin user (registration is open only once)
3. Add remote servers via SSH (root/sudo + Docker recommended on the target VPS)
4. Deploy apps / databases / one-click services from the UI

Important limitations on Zeabur

Coolify’s “local server” mode expects a Docker socket on the host and directories under /data/coolify. On Zeabur containers that socket is not available, so:

• Use Coolify primarily as a control plane
• Add your dedicated / VPS machines over SSH as remote servers
• Do not expect this container to orchestrate sibling Zeabur services via Docker socket

For a full single-VPS install (Docker + Coolify on the same host), use the official script on a bare Linux server:

curl -fsSL https://cdn.coollabs.io/coolify/install.sh | bash

Resources

Official minimum: 2 CPU / 2 GB RAM / 30 GB disk.
Comfortable with a few remote servers managed: 4 CPU / 4–8 GB RAM.
