Show HN: Appliku – Deployment PaaS for Python/Django

I was just breaking my head over deploying my simple stupid Django app last weekend over Render and other PaaS. While I eventually deployed it, it took quite a bit of time and it's still super slow.

That being said, it's unbelievable that you managed to do this alone. The site looks very well built, at least for my non-developer, noon-programmer eyes. I'll definitely give it a try.

Thanks for all kind words.

I am curious what makes it tough to deploy on render?

I didn’t do it alone, the marketing website, illustrations, logo, testing and a lot of product work was done by my cofounder @krisindev

But all of the coding of the app itself yes - that’s me :)

Would you like to join our discord https://appliku.com/discord and so I can ask you a million questions about your struggles with deployments? Always curious to hear what other devs are doing.

Have a great day!

Just slid in. I'm still exploring the platform, and I found the onboarding process a bit wonky - usually we just Github login into another pass, so when I did follow through the instructions to create a Github token (albeit with restricted access), Appliku detected all repositories except the Github token that I had granted access to.

Now I'm in the DO process. The onboarding could be much smoother than that.

Understood. Thanks a lot for your time documenting this. Super valuable!
