Self-hosted PaaS platform (Docker + nginx) that was open source under Apache 2.0 until July 2023. Since v1.x (July 2023) the project uses a custom restricted licence: paid features may not be modified or redistributed without a written agreement, and a mandatory EULA applies. The free/community tier remains source-available but the project is no longer open source under the OSI definition.
