What is caprover?
CapRover is a self-hosted Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) that simplifies deploying and managing web applications and databases on your own infrastructure. It automates complex server setup tasks like Docker containerization, nginx configuration, and SSL certificate management, providing a Heroku-like experience without vendor lock-in.
Web developers who want to deploy applications without deep DevOps or Docker expertise, and those seeking to reduce hosting costs compared to managed PaaS services like Heroku or Azure.
Developers choose CapRover for its one-click deployment of multiple languages and databases, automated SSL via Let's Encrypt, and dual CLI/web GUI interface—all while maintaining full control over their infrastructure and avoiding vendor lock-in.
