Are you interested in a free & open source Netlify?

I'm working on a completely free & open source deployment solution that automates your whole process from DNS operations, cloud infrastructure and content delivery.

Think of a Netlify that runs on top of your own cloud provider where you get most of Netlify's Enterprise perks for free like a 99.99% SLA, one command deployment, CI/CD, unlimited forms, teams and others.

    Many of us here use Netlify, maybe you need to point what new features you are providing. Also Surge.sh is a command line version of Netlify. I like Surge.sg and I made my own simple command line version (as a side project for training my students HelloEle.com it's free, no commercial intention).

      Hey @prakis Cool project with Helloele.com I'm thinking of some synergies between the two projects.

      Mine is github.com/torus-tools No commercial intention neither.

      It's similar to Surge because it uses the command line, but it works on top of major Cloud provider like AWS (can't compete with their infrastructure). Some benefits are that is cheaper than Netlify, since it's free, you have more flexibility since you can integrate it with your apps and offer enterprise-grade CDN to your clients. Also you can mix and match services from different provider and automatize your domain name transfers. It's like if you own your own Netlify and have full control on how to use it. At the same time it's super simple to use, just one command to deploy with no configuration required. Sorry if this sounds like a sales pitch. Just really excited with this project.

        Hello Lucas, torus-tools are excellent. I am very impressed, you should also make it commercial.. there is great potential in it. I am more than happy to make helloele work with torus-tools.
