QuickStack is a self-hosted PaaS solution designed to simplify the management of your applications on one or more virtual private servers (VPS).
Developed as part of a student project by glueh-wyy-huet and biersoeckli at the Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences, QuickStack provides a scalable and cost-effective alternative to commercial cloud PaaS offerings like Vercel, Digital Ocean App Platform or Azure App Service.

- Git Integration: Deploy applications directly from public or private Git repositories.
- Docker Container Deployment: Deploy Docker containers from a Docker Hub, a public or a private registry.
- Live Logging: Debug running containers with live log streams.
- Web Terminal: Access a web-based terminal directly within the container for debugging.
- SSL Certificate Management: Automatic SSL certificate generation via Let's Encrypt.
- Resource Management: Set resource limits (CPU, RAM, storage) for each application.
- Monitoring Dashboard: Track resource consumption and application performance.
- Backups: Create backups of application data and databases to a S3-compatible storage.
- Cluster Support: Scale applications across multiple VPS nodes.
