Dokploy is the sweet spot between PaaS and EC2

Does any of you use one of these (Dokploy, CapRover, Dokku, Coolify) like Netlify, as advertised by some?

For me, the core feature of Netlify is building and deploying static websites quickly, with minimal configuration and triggered by git commits.

Does any of these really resemble that experience (except for the CDN Netlify uses, of course)?

I use Coolify for my own personal static site and it’s just like that. Git pushes redeploy my site and I get a discord notification once’s it’s done. The only manual thing I did was use a cloudlfare tunnel So it’s available to the public, since I am using my homelab to host Coolify.

I host maybe 8 different side projects on Coolify like this. Most don’t even have a Dockerfile in the repo. I use the standard nix packs option, and builds, rolling deployments etc are auto handled.
