Hi everyone, we’ve been working on Safebox, an open-source framework that helps you install, manage, and access self-hosted applications such as Home Assistant, Nextcloud, and Jellyfin ect. Safebox runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows (supporting both x86 and ARM64 architectures, even Raspberry Pi, Banana Pi hardwares also tested). It manages domain and subdomain setup, Let’s Encrypt certificates, DNS configuration, and reverse proxy (nginx). It also includes a WireGuard-based remote access feature and a geo-redundant backup system (currently in development). The project is in beta, and we’re looking for people interested in testing and sharing feedback. All information about Safebox and beta testing can be found in our Discord channel. Try it using Docker: docker run --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock safebox/framework-scheduler

Then open: http://localhost:8080/

We’d really appreciate any feedback or ideas for improvement.

    They will have a paid tier after beta, also it’s deployed with docker only. It’s a shame, it does look quite clean.

        To be fair, the pro plan is for the non-local stuff, which is at least understandable as domains and resolution services are non-free.

        Also ongoing development takes resources. Seems like a reasonable approach.

        I say this as someone who absolutely despises subscriptions.

          They should clarify it. If these 3 points are just offering an easier way to do it, then fine. If they block these features in general when you want to manage it yourself, then screw it. I had one self hosted software, which blocked remote access even when you use your own reverse proxy. At least it was a one time payment.

            Since the software is open source, we’re not planning to block or restrict anything now or in the future. Right now we’re focused on development, and later we might build some services around it, but the software itself will always be free to use.

      From their FAQ:

      What is the difference between the Basic and the Pro plan? The Basic (free) plan includes local access, a full suite of applications, and encrypted backups to local devices. The Pro (€10/month) plan provides remote access via custom domains, geo-redundant backups across locations, and unlimited subdomain support.
