About

Coly for Self

Features
Read full description

Coly is a native client for the self-hosted deployment platforms you already run — Coolify, Dokploy, EasyPanel, Portainer, Temps, and Towbar — so you can check on a deploy or restart a stuck service without opening a laptop. Add every instance you manage. Switch between teams and providers from one screen, and see the same dashboard whether you're on Coolify or Dokploy. WHAT YOU CAN DO • See every resource's real status at a glance — running, deploying, stopped, or in error • Start, stop, restart, or trigger a fresh deploy, each behind a confirmation step • Browse projects, servers, and deployment history, and read logs on the spot • View environment variables, and edit them where the provider allows it • Get notified in the background when a deploy finishes, fails, or health changes BUILT FOR SELF-HOSTERS Your API credentials are stored only in this device's Keychain. Coly never sends them anywhere but the instance you point it at. Coolify and Dokploy are fully supported for viewing and control. EasyPanel, Portainer, Temps, and Towbar are read-only today. PREMIUM Unlimited connections and background health alerts. Monthly or yearly, cancel anytime. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
