Story

Hey HN,

I posted Out Plane here last week. Wanted to share an update because I've been shipping a lot.

I started this because deploying side projects was killing my motivation. Build something fun over a weekend, then waste two days on Dockerfiles, nginx, and SSL. So I built what I wanted — connect GitHub, push code, get a URL. Done.

Since December I've added managed PostgreSQL, managed Redis with RedisInsight built in, Dockerfile auto-detection that pre-fills your config, real-time metrics, and scale to zero — no traffic means no bill. Per-second pricing, not hourly. Same Next.js + Postgres app costs me $2.40/mo vs $12–47 on other platforms.

No CLI yet, docs need work, ~200 users. Just me, no team, no funding. But people are running real stuff on it.

$20 free credit, no credit card. I read all feedback personally — I'm the only one here.
