Coolify is a self-hosted PaaS (Vercel/Netlify alternative) that deploys applications, databases, and services on your own infrastructure. It provides a REST API for programmatic control, supports multiple build packs, and uses Traefik for reverse proxy and SSL.
When to use: Deploying applications to self-hosted infrastructure, managing databases and services through API, automating deployments via CI/CD, self-hosting without vendor lock-in.
When NOT to use: Initial Coolify server installation (use the official install script via browser), managing Coolify's own infrastructure (Postgres, Redis — managed internally), or when a managed platform (Vercel, Railway) meets your needs without self-hosting requirements.
Coolify 自托管 PaaS,用于通过 REST API 和 Git 集成部署应用程序、数据库和服务。涵盖 API 身份验证、部署触发器、构建包(Nixpacks、Dockerfile、Compose)、带有 GitHub Actions webhooks 的 CI/CD、环境管理和 Traefik 代理配置。 在将应用程序部署到 Coolify、通过 API 触发部署、配置构建包、设置 GitHub Actions CI/CD 管道、管理环境变量或排除部署故障时使用。 来源:oakoss/agent-skills。
