## What it is
ZaneOps is a self-hosted, open-source PaaS for deploying and managing web apps, databases, static sites, and services, built on Docker Swarm and Caddy. It offers a polished web UI with git-based deployments, preview environments, blue/green deployments, free SSL, and built-in logs and metrics.

## Use cases
- self-host a heroku or railway alternative on my own server
- deploy web apps from github with automatic deploys
- host static sites and databases with free ssl
- run preview deployments for pull requests
- deploy docker-compose files with blue/green deployments
- monitor logs and metrics for my self-hosted apps

## When to choose
- you want a beautiful self-hosted alternative to Heroku, Railway, Render, or Netlify
- you need git push-to-deploy with preview environments and blue/green releases
- you want unified logs, metrics, and terminal access in one dashboard
- you want to deploy docker-compose stacks with templates and shared volumes

## When to avoid
- you need a managed PaaS without maintaining your own server
- your infrastructure is not Linux-based or lacks Docker
- you need Windows support or non-Unix environments
- you require a fully mature enterprise-grade platform with long-term support
