Insights & Updates
Tutorials, deployment guides, product updates, and engineering deep-dives from the Miget team.
Private Networks and VPN Are Live
Give your apps, databases and services a private network of their own, with internal DNS and no route in from the outside - then reach it over WireGuard, Tailscale, Cloudflare WARP, or an IPsec tunnel to a network you already run.
Project Access, Resource Assignment and Workspace API Tokens
Close a project to the people who need it, dedicate a compute resource to the projects allowed to deploy on it, and issue API tokens that belong to the workspace rather than to a person.
Static Sites: Free Hosting for a Built Site
Deploy prebuilt HTML, CSS and JavaScript from GitHub, a git push, an SFTP upload or a zip file, with framework detection across 33 generators. No compute resource behind it, and no charge for it.
Self-Hosted Slack Alternatives, and the One Part You Cannot Self-Host
Mattermost, Rocket.Chat and Zulip compared on the two things that decide a migration: which one is actually open source across the whole repository, and why mobile push notifications still route through the vendor.
Self-Hosting a Password Manager: What You Are Actually Taking On
Self-hosting a password manager changes less about security than people assume, and more about backups than they expect. The options, the licence detail nobody mentions, and the failure mode that should decide it for you.
Mintlify Alternatives: What You Are Actually Choosing Between
Every Mintlify alternatives list is written by someone selling a docs product. We pay for Mintlify and wrote the exporter, so here is the comparison without a horse in the race - including the one dimension nobody checks.
How to Self-Host Mintlify Docs as a Static Site
Mintlify offers self-hosting on Enterprise. Everyone else can export the rendered docs to a static bundle and host them anywhere - here is the open-source tool we built for it, and the honest list of what it does not cover.
Notion Alternatives You Can Actually Host Yourself
Most self-hosted Notion alternatives replace the documents and quietly drop the databases. Which two do both, what Outline's Business Source License actually restricts, and the honest answer about what you lose.
Retool Alternatives You Can Actually Host Yourself
Appsmith, ToolJet and Budibase compared on what decides whether self-hosting works - the shape of the deployment and where each one keeps its data, not the widget list.
