Original: Deploying Dokploy - Self-Hosted PaaS for Docker Applications on Ubuntu 24.04

Short summary

This guide walks through installing Dokploy, an open-source self-hosted PaaS alternative to Heroku and Vercel, on Ubuntu 24.04. It covers deploying a sample app from GitHub, securing traffic with Traefik and Let's Encrypt HTTPS, provisioning a PostgreSQL database, and monitoring container resources. By the end you have a fully functional PaaS running an app and database behind automatic HTTPS.

  • Install Dokploy on Ubuntu 24.04 via a one-line installer that sets up Docker Swarm and the Dokploy stack
  • Deploy a sample app from GitHub using Nixpacks auto-detection and secure it with Traefik + Let's Encrypt HTTPS
  • Provision a one-click PostgreSQL database and monitor CPU, memory, and network I/O per container
