Self-Hosted App Deployment
Self-hosted stacks for search, monitoring, docs, file sharing, AI tooling, and the infrastructure around them.
What this includes
This service is a fit when you know the app you want to run, but you do not want to waste days stitching together containers, reverse proxy, storage, backups, and updates.
App deployment planning
Check resource fit, storage needs, network layout, and whether the app is realistic for your VPS or local server.
Operational deployment
Container setup, domain or local access, TLS if needed, and the update path that keeps the app maintainable.
Documentation for the handoff
The important commands, file locations, and decisions so the service is not a black box after deployment.
Process
Choose the right app and hosting approach for the requirement
Deploy the stack with the missing operational pieces included
Document the moving parts so the service stays manageable

Frequently asked questions
Can you deploy more than one app in the same project?
Yes, as long as the scope is clear. A lot of self-hosted work is really about the stack around the app, not just one container.
Do you only work with home-lab setups?
No. The same patterns can apply to a personal server, an internal team tool, or a small production deployment.
