boatramp

boatramp is a self-hosted, streaming-first alternative to Vercel and Netlify, shipped as one Rust binary that is both the server and the CLI. You run it yourself to publish static sites, WebAssembly handlers, and edge compute, with atomic deployments and instant rollback. The same commands and config run on a single node, a self-hosted cluster, or Cloudflare Containers.
