Kaneo
With nearly 8,000 GitHub stars since its December 2024 launch, Kaneo has rapidly gained traction as the minimalist alternative to bloated project management platforms like Jira and Linear. Built on TypeScript with React and Hono, the interface strips away complexity to focus on execution — plan in list view, track in kanban board, and schedule on interactive Gantt chart timelines where dragging bar handles adjusts start and due dates with optimistic UI updates. Native GitHub integration synchronizes issues bidirectionally, links pull requests to tasks, and keeps product planning aligned with development execution without context switching. The built-in Model Context Protocol server at /api/mcp enables AI tools like Claude and Cursor to manage tasks, projects, and labels directly, while the official @kaneo/mcp npm package provides stdio access for local MCP clients. Authentication supports password, magic link, GitHub OAuth, and Google sign-in with organization-level access management. Rich text editing for task descriptions and comments, label-based initiative grouping, priority levels, assignee management, and due date tracking provide focused planning without ceremony. Deploy with the drim CLI for automatic HTTPS and database setup, Docker Compose for custom configurations, or Helm charts for Kubernetes clusters — all requiring just 2GB RAM and PostgreSQL. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Kutt
Built for self-hosting from the ground up, Kutt is a modern, MIT-licensed URL shortener: zero-configuration setup, no build step, and SQLite, PostgreSQL, or MySQL with optional Redis caching. Links carry real management features - custom slugs from a configurable alphabet (confusable characters like 0/O and l/1 omitted by default), password protection, descriptions, expiration times, and the ability to edit a destination URL without changing the short link already in circulation. Custom domains make branded short links first-class: add as many as you like and serve each under your own name instead of a third-party's. Private, per-link statistics track clicks, browsers, operating systems, and countries without logging visitor IPs or sensitive data. An admin page manages users and links instance-wide, and two environment flags (DISALLOW_REGISTRATION, DISALLOW_ANONYMOUS_LINKS) lock the instance down for private use; OpenID Connect login integrates with an existing identity provider. Automation runs through a documented REST API - create, list, delete, and pull stats - plus Chrome and Firefox extensions and ShareX compatibility for shortening from anywhere. Built with Node.js and React, deployed in one Docker container, it replaces Bitly with something you own: your domain, your analytics, and links that never die with a vendor.
Shlink
With over 5,100 GitHub stars and eight years of active development since 2016, Shlink has become the definitive self-hosted URL shortener for teams that need unlimited links, full visitor analytics, and complete data ownership without per-link pricing or monthly caps. The PHP backend built on the Mezzio framework with Doctrine ORM serves redirects through any number of custom domains on a single instance, generating unique short codes or accepting custom slugs including multi-segment paths and emoji characters. Every click is tracked with anonymized visitor data including geolocation by country, city, and coordinates, browser and operating system identification, referrer source, and device type classification, all stored in your choice of MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, or SQLite. Dynamic redirect rules route visitors to different destinations based on geolocation, device type, or browser language, enabling targeted campaigns from a single short URL. The REST API exposes every operation with OpenAPI documentation and an interactive sandbox at api-spec.shlink.io, while the CLI provides equivalent functionality for scripting and automation. The official progressive web app at app.shlink.io manages multiple Shlink instances from a single interface with URL creation, tag management, and detailed visit charts. Real-time event integration supports both Mercure and RabbitMQ for webhook-style notifications on new visits. Third-party imports migrate existing short URLs from Bitly and YOURLS with visit history preserved. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Pixelle Video
Backed by Alibaba's AIDC team and carrying over 27,700 GitHub stars, Pixelle-Video turns a single text prompt into a publish-ready short video in approximately three minutes — handling scriptwriting, image generation, voice narration, music selection, subtitle overlay, and final MP4 export in one automated pipeline. The engine supports multiple LLM backends for script generation including GPT-4, Qwen, DeepSeek, and local Ollama deployments, while image and video creation routes through either self-hosted ComfyUI workflows, cloud-based RunningHub pipelines, or direct API connections to DashScope Wan, OpenAI, Seedream, Seedance, and Kling AI. Text-to-speech synthesis uses Edge-TTS, Index-TTS, and other mainstream engines with multi-language voice profiles. Five distinct pipelines cover Quick Create, Standard, Digital Human Avatar broadcasting, Image-to-Video transformation, and Motion Transfer from reference video. The Streamlit web UI on port 8501 provides a visual workflow builder with template selection across portrait (1080x1920), landscape (1920x1080), and square formats, while the FastAPI server on port 8000 exposes a REST API with endpoints for async video generation, task polling, content scripting, TTS and image generation, template listing, and health checks. History persistence tracks all completed generations. HTML-based visual templates support static, image-overlay, and AI-video styles with customizable prompt prefixes. The modular architecture lets operators swap any atomic capability — image model, video model, TTS engine, or VLM — by editing a workflow JSON file without touching Python code. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache 2.0 licensed.
Freescout
Unlimited agents, unlimited tickets, unlimited mailboxes, forever, on a $4 VPS - FreeScout's pricing inversion is why it became the most popular self-hosted Help Scout alternative, a PHP/Laravel help desk and shared inbox developed from scratch over eight years. The inbox deliberately behaves like Gmail or Outlook, so new support agents need close to zero training. The email-support core is genuinely complete: seamless IMAP/SMTP integration including modern Microsoft Exchange authentication, collision detection that warns when two agents open the same conversation, canned responses, auto-replies, internal notes, open tracking, starring, forwarding, merging, and moving conversations between mailboxes, phone-call logging, push notifications, and an auto-refreshing conversation list - plus screenshot pasting straight from the clipboard into replies. It's 100% mobile-friendly, fully screen-reader accessible, and translated into 28 languages. Beyond the core, an ecosystem of 100+ modules (mostly one-time $12-20 purchases) adds knowledge base, workflows with Gmail-filter-style automation rules, satisfaction ratings, time tracking, tags, custom fields, LDAP, Slack, WhatsApp and Telegram channels, and an API with webhooks - pay only for what your team needs. Web installer and updater included. AGPL-licensed.
BTCPay Server
BTCPay Server processes Bitcoin payments with zero transaction fees, zero monthly costs, and zero third-party custody of your funds. Payments settle directly from customer to your wallet through a full Bitcoin node that provides cryptographic proof of receipt without trusting any intermediary. Lightning Network integration through LND, Core Lightning, or Eclair enables sub-second confirmation at sub-cent fees, with Ride The Lightning providing web-based node management within BTCPay itself. The Point of Sale app creates storefronts with product catalogs, tipping, and QR code displays for physical retail, events, or web embeds. Hardware wallet support through BTCPay Vault connects Ledger, Trezor, and ColdCard for transaction signing, keeping private keys in cold storage while running a hot payment interface. Multi-tenant architecture allows multiple stores on one instance, each with isolated wallets, Lightning nodes, and user permissions. The Greenfield REST API exposes every function programmatically for headless operation, automated invoicing, and custom integrations. E-commerce connectors for WooCommerce, Shopify, Magento, and PrestaShop plug in alongside Zapier for workflow automation. Optional Tor hidden services expose the instance as an onion address for censorship resistance. The official Docker Compose stack handles Nginx reverse proxy, Let's Encrypt TLS, and optional Tor configuration on a dedicated RepoCloud VPS with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD. MIT licensed.
The Lounge
"Forget about bouncers" became a real sentence because of The Lounge: a Node.js web IRC client that holds persistent connections to your networks 24/7, logging everything while you sleep, so closing the browser tab never means missing a message or losing your place in a channel. Open it again from any device - desktop, phone, tablet - and you resume exactly where you left off, with full history synchronized. Because it combines bouncer and client in one process, the experience feels like a modern chat app rather than 1990s infrastructure: push notifications for highlights and private messages (with self-generated VAPID keys, so even Web Push needs no third-party service), automatic link previews, inline file and image uploads, and full IRCv3 protocol support. It installs as a progressive web app from any modern browser, so phones get a native-feel client without an app store. Multi-user support means one instance serves your whole team or community, each user with their own networks and history, and LDAP integration ties into existing authentication. A public mode alternatively serves as an open, registration-free web chat for events or support channels. MIT-licensed, born as a fork of Shout, and a fixture of self-hosting stacks since.
Ghostfolio
Stocks, ETFs, crypto, bonds, precious metals, and cash across every account and currency, in one privacy-first dashboard: Ghostfolio is open-source wealth management software. The deliberate design decision is no brokerage linking: positions enter by manual entry, CSV import, or the REST API, so your holdings never pass through a data aggregator. Performance is measured as return on average investment across Today, WTD, MTD, YTD, 1Y, 5Y, and Max timeframes, with benchmark comparison against indices like the S&P 500, dividend tracking, and allocation breakdowns by asset class, region, and sector. A static X-ray analysis flags concentration and other portfolio risks, and a FIRE calculator projects progress toward financial independence. Multi-currency support converts holdings using historical exchange rates, market data comes from Yahoo Finance and CoinGecko among other pluggable providers, and everything exports back out as CSV or JSON. Built with Angular and NestJS on PostgreSQL and Redis, shipped as Docker images for amd64 and ARM, with a mobile-first PWA interface, dark mode, and a distraction-free Zen mode. AGPL-licensed.
CaddyUI
Providing an intuitive control plane for modern reverse proxy infrastructure, CaddyUI enables system administrators to manage proxy hosts, automated TLS certificates, and traffic routing without hand-editing configuration files. Operators can create and adjust reverse proxy destinations, URL path rewrites, custom headers, and redirection rules using structured forms that validate against the proxy engine before saving. The platform coordinates automatic ACME certificate requests and renewals, displaying live certificate expiration timelines, validation stages, and internal self-signed certificate authority options for local network services. Fleet management tools synchronize proxy rules across multiple distributed server instances, preventing configuration drift across staging and production clusters. Automated post-deployment health checks verify upstream endpoint availability, HTTP status codes, and latency thresholds, instantly rolling back to the previous configuration if an expectation fails. An integrated observability suite delivers real-time visitor traffic analytics, geographic maps, HTTP response code breakdowns, and single-click client IP blocking to counter malicious probing attempts. Administrators can schedule automated database backups, configure multi-user access with role permissions, and integrate CrowdSec threat intelligence to protect backends. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache 2.0 licensed.
Yep Anywhere
Designed for developers on the go, Yep Anywhere turns any smartphone browser into a full-featured control center for supervising, steering, and reviewing autonomous AI coding agents. Operators can monitor live execution across multiple active projects simultaneously without sitting at a desktop terminal. Real-time reasoning feeds. Instant push alerts for permission prompts. One-tap tool approvals. Developers can unblock pending tasks mid-turn, redirect active workflows, or queue sequential follow-up prompts for automatic delivery at the next safe milestone. An integrated source control viewer displays syntax-highlighted working-tree and commit diffs, allowing reviewers to attach line-level comment bundles directly back into the agent context. Mobile voice transcription lets users dictate instructions straight into running sessions, while photo library integration makes uploading bug screenshots effortless. All agent credentials, CLI configurations, and repository data remain private on the host server without requiring third-party cloud database accounts or proprietary device pairing. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
Casdoor
With 13,800+ GitHub stars and active releases through 2026, Casdoor is the open-source identity platform that ships OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SAML 2.0, CAS, LDAP, SCIM 2.0, WebAuthn passkeys, TOTP multi-factor authentication, and Face ID biometric login in a single Go binary with a React web console — covering every authentication protocol your organization will ever need. Social login connects 50+ identity providers including Google, GitHub, Microsoft Azure AD, Facebook, WeChat, DingTalk, Apple, Twitter, and LinkedIn without custom code. The AI-first architecture includes a Model Context Protocol gateway for AI agent authentication and Agent-to-Agent protocol support for securing LLM-powered workflows. Built-in Casbin integration delivers authorization primitives beyond basic RBAC: attribute-based access control, relationship-based access control, and custom policy models through a unified engine. The organization-scoped multi-tenancy model isolates users, applications, and identity providers per tenant with customizable login pages, branding, and SMTP configuration. SCIM 2.0 endpoints automate user provisioning from HR systems and Active Directory. Official SDKs for Go, Java, Node.js, Python, and PHP accelerate application integration. The RESTful API exposes every resource for programmatic management. Comprehensive audit logs record authentication events and administrative actions. Deploy via Docker Compose with MySQL or PostgreSQL, the all-in-one SQLite Docker image for quick trials, or the official Kubernetes Helm chart for production clusters. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache 2.0 licensed.
Websurfx
Websurfx aggregates results from multiple search engines into one private, ad-free interface that never tracks your queries. Written in Rust, the backend provides memory safety against buffer overflows and data races at the language level while handling concurrent requests across upstream providers like DuckDuckGo and Searx. A built-in re-ranking algorithm scores and merges results by relevance, producing a unified page that draws from many sources while appearing as one coherent search. Safe-search filtering operates across four levels from unrestricted to complete content blocking, with regex-based filter lists for parental controls in schools and organizations. Upstream requests route through configurable proxy chains or Tor, preventing search providers from correlating your queries with a specific IP address. Four Docker image variants target different caching strategies: hybrid Redis plus in-memory for maximum throughput, Redis-only, in-memory-only, or zero-persistence for environments where cached queries must never touch disk. The Lua configuration file controls engine selection, request timeouts, rate limiting thresholds, and production-mode delays that throttle upstream traffic to prevent abuse. Quick-result widgets handle calculations, currency conversions, and unit transformations inline without external redirects. Image search capabilities serve visual discovery for designers and researchers who need media results without surveillance. Runs on a RepoCloud VPS with dedicated resources and full root access. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Password Pusher
Credentials sitting forever in email threads and chat scrollback - Password Pusher solves that everyday security failure. Instead of pasting a password into Slack, you push it - a password, note, file, URL, or QR code - and share a unique one-time link that expires after a set number of views, a time limit, or both. Content is encrypted at rest with AES-GCM under a configurable master key, optionally guarded by a passphrase, and permanently deleted from the database the moment it expires; a retrieval-step option keeps URL-scanning bots from consuming views. Full audit logs record when each link was created and viewed (and by whom, with logins), and TOTP two-factor authentication can be required instance-wide. The delivery page is deliberately unbranded - no logos or confusing links for recipients - and the interface ships in 31 languages with light and dark themes. Automation runs through a JSON API (v2), an official CLI for pushing and expiring secrets from the terminal, a Chrome extension, and a catalog of third-party integrations. Apache-2.0 licensed Ruby on Rails, deployable via Docker, Kubernetes, or Helm, with SQLite or PostgreSQL storage - the sysadmin staple for sending credentials that clean up after themselves.
CyberChef
GCHQ open-sourced its "Cyber Swiss Army Knife", and CyberChef became the web app security analysts, incident responders, and CTF players reach for when data needs decoding, decrypting, or dissecting. Its interface is four panes: paste or drag input (files up to 2GB), search a categorized library of hundreds of operations, drag them into a recipe with arguments, and read the output. Operations span Base64, hex, and XOR encoding; AES, DES, and Blowfish encryption; classical ciphers from Caesar to Railfence; hashes and checksums; compression; regex and string extraction of IPs, domains, and URLs; timestamp conversion; and parsers for IPv6, X.509 certificates, and more. Recipes chain arbitrarily - convert from a hexdump then decompress, decrypt AES pulling the IV from the cipher stream, or let the Magic operation auto-detect several layers of nested encoding. Auto Bake re-runs the recipe live as input or arguments change, Step executes one operation at a time for debugging, and flow control (forks, subsections, registers) applies different operations to different parts of the data. Recipes save to files or share as URLs encoding the full pipeline. Crucially, CyberChef is entirely client-side JavaScript - nothing uploads anywhere - and self-hosting guarantees an unmodified copy inside your own network, where malware artifacts belong.
Fleetbase
Tracking over 50,000 fleet vehicles across production deployments, Fleetbase delivers a modular logistics operating system where each module—Fleet-Ops, Storefront, Pallet, and Ledger—works independently yet shares a unified data layer that eliminates middleware between ordering, dispatch, warehousing, and accounting. The Fleet-Ops core handles real-time driver tracking through a SocketCluster-based WebSocket event bus, interactive map-based dispatch with both directed and ad-hoc driver assignment, configurable order workflows with custom rules, automation triggers, and activity flows, plus a Kanban-style order board for visual pipeline management. Service zones let dispatchers define geographic operating areas, while proof-of-delivery capture and route optimization close the last-mile loop. The Storefront module provides headless e-commerce with products, carts, and checkout that feed directly into dispatch queues, and the Ledger module records invoices and financial journal entries across all operations. The Navigator driver app—also AGPL-3.0 licensed and fully white-label—delivers turn-by-turn navigation, live order communication, and fault reporting to drivers in the field. The extension architecture pairs backend Laravel Composer packages with frontend Ember Engine modules, enabling third-party developers to build first-class platform extensions without forking. A RESTful API with full documentation, webhook delivery via Redis-backed queues, and push notification support through APNs and FCM round out the integration surface. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Calibre-Web Automated
Turn any chaotic digital book archive into an autonomous, self-organizing reading portal using Calibre-Web Automated, a digital library manager featuring hands-free format conversions, metadata fetching, and e-reader synchronization. Readers can drop raw ebook files into the automated intake directory and watch the system instantly convert between twenty-eight distinct file types, repair malformed EPUB internal markup, and fetch enriched metadata from Hardcover, Kobo, and ISBN databases. The responsive web reader lets you browse collections, read directly in any desktop or mobile browser, and organize titles into dynamic rules-based Magic Shelves that update automatically. Built-in KOReader sync harmonizes reading progress and bookmarks across mobile devices and e-ink readers, while native OPDS feeds connect seamlessly to your favorite external reader applications. Administrative tools empower you to run hybrid SQL and fuzzy duplicate detection scans, perform batch metadata editing across entire series, enforce cover art changes directly into source files, and auto-dispatch newly ingested books to Kindle or Kobo devices via scheduled email delivery. Granular multi-user controls allow administrators to assign folder permissions, restrict downloads, enforce dark mode themes, and authenticate readers securely through OAuth and OpenID Connect identity providers. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GNU General Public License v3.0 licensed.
Cozy Cloud
With over 1,200 GitHub stars, 12,000+ commits, and more than a decade of active development distributed under the AGPL-3.0 license, Cozy Cloud operates as a comprehensive personal data hub that goes far beyond file storage by connecting your documents, contacts, calendars, banking transactions, energy bills, and productivity tools into a single self-hosted platform where no third party profiles you. The cozy-stack Go binary handles file storage, CouchDB document management, job scheduling, app serving, and the REST API in a single process consuming approximately 150MB of RAM idle. Sandboxed konnectors import data from 50+ external services — banks, utility providers, telecom operators, cloud drives — running as isolated jobs via nsjail to prevent untrusted code from accessing other user data. The built-in app store serves web applications in subdomain-isolated environments with Content Security Policy headers, each app communicating exclusively through the documented REST API. Real-time synchronization via PouchDB replication and WebSocket keeps files, contacts, and documents consistent across desktop clients, mobile apps for iOS and Android with automatic photo backup, and the web interface. Security features include automatic Let's Encrypt TLS certificates, Argon2id password hashing, optional TOTP two-factor authentication, and GDPR-compliant data export via the CLI. Each user receives their own isolated instance with independent storage, database, and application configuration. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.
Cal.diy
With over 47,000 GitHub stars, Cal.diy is the fully open-source community fork of Cal.com that strips away every proprietary license gate and enterprise paywall to deliver a pure MIT-licensed scheduling platform you completely own. The booking engine supports individual event types including recurring events, seated events with capacity limits, and paid bookings through Stripe and PayPal, all backed by customizable availability schedules with date overrides, buffer times, minimum notice periods, and travel schedule support. Calendar synchronization is bidirectional across nine providers — Google Calendar, Outlook and Office 365, Apple Calendar, CalDAV, Lark, Feishu, Zoho, Exchange, and ICS feeds — so every booking automatically appears on your existing calendar while blocking conflicting slots. Video conferencing links generate automatically for Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, Jitsi, Daily.co, Whereby, and Huddle01, eliminating manual link management. The automation layer connects through webhooks, Zapier, n8n, Make, and Pipedream to CRM platforms like HubSpot, Salesforce, and Close, messaging services including Discord, Telegram, and WhatsApp, and analytics tools such as Google Analytics 4, PostHog, and Fathom. The entire application is built on the T3 stack — Next.js for server-rendered pages, tRPC for end-to-end type-safe APIs, Prisma for PostgreSQL database access, and Tailwind CSS for the responsive interface. Unlike Cal.com's open-core model, Cal.diy requires no license key and includes no gated features. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
