Show HN: deeploy 0.1 – Terminal-first deployment platform (self-hosted)
Description and use
Built a self-hosted terminal-first deployment platform as an alternative to Heroku/Vercel using Go, Bubble Tea (TUI), Docker, Traefik, Let's Encrypt, and PostgreSQL. Install on a VPS with one curl, run the TUI locally, deploy via git push. Supports zero-downtime deploys and auto SSL. Early release 0.1.
Problem
The user wants a self-hosted alternative to Heroku/Vercel that runs entirely in the terminal, with no browser tabs or dashboards, so deployments feel native to their terminal workflow.
Outcome
A self-hosted terminal-first deployment platform was built and released as version 0.1, supporting zero-downtime deploys, auto SSL, and one-command VPS installation.
Workflow
- Install a daemon on the user's VPS using one curl command
- Run the TUI (Bubble Tea) application on the local machine
- Deploy via git push from the local machine to the VPS daemon
Evidence
I built a self-hosted alternative to Heroku/Vercel that runs entirely in the terminal. Why? I wanted deployments to feel native to my terminal workflow. No browser tabs, no dashboards.
Stack: Go, Bubble Tea (TUI), Docker, Traefik, Let's Encrypt, PostgreSQL.
You install a daemon on your VPS (one curl), run the TUI on your machine, and deploy via git push. Zero downtime, auto SSL.
Early release (0.1). Would love feedback on the approach.
