Introduction

Noite is a tiny self-hostable PaaS for celld: user accounts (passkeys), apps, {slug}.{BASE_DOMAIN} subdomains, thin deploy/build logs and status. It fits on one small server.

Noite is one image, ghcr.io/<owner>/noite. One docker compose up -d runs it next to a bundled RustFS store (docker/compose.yaml); inside the container the runner supervises everything else:

• runner: the Rust deploy pipeline and PID 1. Git smart-HTTP, builds, one celld fleet per app, telemetry aggregation, and the edge’s config.
• caddy: the edge. Per-host TLS with on-demand certificates, routing to the UI, the API and tenant apps.
• control: the Oxide control UI, a celld fleet whose worker bundle is baked into the image and deployed on first boot.
• tenant fleets: one celld per app, sandboxed from the platform when other people push code (NOITE_TENANCY=multi).

State lives in one S3 bucket (git/ tip bundles, fleets/ tenant celld, control/ the UI worker and its D1, runner/state/ runner snapshots): the bundled RustFS, or your own S3 with --scale rustfs=0.

Get started from a checkout:

cp .env.example .env
make up      # build the image and start the stack
make logs
make doctor  # verify the install

Then deploy the sample app: cd apps/noite/test && ./deploy.sh.

Real domains, external S3, Coolify, image-only hosts, volumes and backups: Deployment.
