CapRover is an open-source PaaS (Platform as a Service) platform that simplifies web application deployment and management. It allows you to deploy Node.js, PHP, Python, Ruby applications and Docker containers with Git Push, similar to Heroku but self-hosted on your own VPS.

CapRover requires at minimum 1 GB RAM and 1 vCPU, but we recommend at least 2 GB RAM for production use with multiple applications. A VPS with 4 GB RAM is ideal for hosting 5-10 applications simultaneously.

You have several options: deployment via Git Push (the simplest), uploading a tar file, or using the web interface to deploy Docker applications. CapRover also supports deployment from GitHub, GitLab and other Git services.

Yes, CapRover integrates Let's Encrypt and automatically generates free SSL certificates for all your applications and domains. HTTPS activation is done with one click from the web interface, and certificates are renewed automatically.

Absolutely! CapRover allows you to host unlimited applications and domains on a single VPS. Each application can have its own domain or subdomain with automatic SSL. The Nginx reverse proxy handles routing.

You can create complete VPS snapshots via our control panel. For applications, use CapRover's built-in backup features to save configurations. Databases can be exported via the web interface or automated scripts.
