I built my own GitHub Gists alternative — self-hosted, bilingual, and it has an Insights dashboard

Описание и применение

Создана собственная альтернатива GitHub Gists, работающая в Docker, с поддержкой русского и болгарского языков, аналитикой и простым развертыванием.

Задача

GitHub Gists lack Bulgarian UI, cannot be self-hosted, lack tags, stats, and custom visibility controls.

Результат

gistly provides a lightweight, self-hosted alternative to GitHub Gists with multilingual UI, advanced features, and simple Docker deployment.

Рабочий процесс

• Clone gistly repository
• Create .env with ADMIN_PASSWORD and AUTH_SECRET
• Run ./deploy.sh to build and start Docker container
• Access app on port 3000
• Use reverse proxy for HTTPS
