One command to deploy Docker containers to your own server

The fastest way to deploy Docker containers to your own server. One command. Automatic HTTPS. Zero config. Platforms like Vercel and Railway have great DX but are expensive and lock you in. Self-hosting is cheap and flexible, but getting containers live with HTTPS is a pain. zero closes that gap — deploy any Docker image to your own server with a single command. Auto HTTPS, zero-downtime deploys, health checks, rollbacks, and preview environments. No YAML. No web UI. Just a CLI that works.

Hey! I'm Ronald, the maker of zero.
I kept running into the same problem: platforms like Vercel and Railway have amazing DX, but they're expensive and don't support arbitrary Docker images. Self-hosting is cheap and flexible, but setting up nginx, Certbot, deploy scripts, and health checks for every app is tedious.
So I built zero — a single binary that handles all of it. Run zero deploy and your container is live with automatic HTTPS, zero-downtime deploys, preview deployments, and health checks. No YAML, no web dashboard, no config files. Just SSH and a CLI.
It's open source (MIT), has only 2 dependencies, and runs on any Linux server.
I'd love to hear your feedback — what's missing? What would you use it for?

@vouchy It was literally every project I had to deploy this year so far. :) So I solved my own problem and built a radically simple approach to deploying. Let me know how it works for you - happy to assist!

Looks interesting! Even with own-written reverse-proxy, nice!
I'll definitely check it out, even as an AWS fanboy.
But comes at the right time when AWS AppRunner went into maintenance mode…

Thank you so much for the kind words @sandro_vol1 !
This means a lot - especially if you’re a heavy AWS user and ambassador. I’d love to hear your feedback, let me know if you have any question. I’ll help you onboard personally.
