I keep seeing render come up, but every time I am shocked they paid money (I assume) for that domain name, as there will be no way to google "render rails deployment", "render react deployment" etc. What a horrible name for a company like this.
It's interesting you don't see it. I wonder what sort of profile google's made of you.
I get their website as the first result for both queries, both in my signed in profile and in a clean browser session over a vpn.

Interesting! I've been experimenting with Gigalixir for a Heroku-ish experience that supports Elixir clustering... I'll have to give Render a look and compare the two.

Unless you have a static site, in which case there are loads of options out there, there doesn't seem to be a free tier. Wouldn't fly.io be the modern version (I'm not saying heroku is outdated, I think it's still brilliant)?
I love Render. Really nice services, good UI, and they keep iterating.
Now, I'd say Render is the modern version of what Heroku was. It's super easy to use for Rails/Laravel/Node/etc, it doesn't break clustering of Elixir apps and static sites are free.
