Moving to the new house was in the middle of our yearly vacation, so it was shorter than usual.
We don't have internet at the house yet, and there was an issue with the cloud instance (details to follow).
This was literally me. π
You had one job to fill the <template> with the actual app name.
Failed. π

This applies to any other jobs.
Everyone can paint a wall, but it won't look the same if someone with years of experience does it.
Just tried out Claude Code: added a new feature & refactored on two UI/backend parts.
It literally one-shot my requests and everything is working.
($0.39 was only to init & index Coolify's codebase)
Worth it? π€
I scaled Coolify Cloud after one year, it took just 25 minutes.
Now we have our 7th server.
Scaling is hard, yeah.

Also me doing UI stuff (this is released in the latest version π
):
Someone told me to add a donation link directly to the self-hosted instances of Coolify, so they can support me financially in the app.
Is this a bad idea? Sounds like ads in an app? Or is it okay?
I did not ask for this!
New pricing page thanks to Shadow (one of our mods)! π
They (mods) see the problem (frequently asked questions) based on the community, and they took action that reduces support cases. π
Much better and more informative than before. Noice!
I have no idea how it works, but it will save a lot of time on support cases, so I like it. π

Coolify Magic Support (name could change π
)
It uses all the cool buzzwords: RAG, vectordb, agents, embedding, ollama, workflow, automation.
π οΈ Coolify v419 released.
Lots of fixes, features, improvements (UI/UX), but the most important:
- Sentinel is enabled by default for new servers so CPU usage is reduced by 50%+
- New Security view for servers: semi-auto server updates through the UI.
- Terminal works through CF tunnel (finally).
It's still unbelievable how many people help me write Coolify.
And this is just for one release. Thank you.
