https://video.elfhosted.com/videos/watch/2f23b239-0a31-422c-8b95-0dae414117ea What is ElfHosted? We host popular open-source apps and keep them running for you: no hardware at home, nothing to install, backed up daily. Photos in Immich, passwords in Vaultwarden, recipes in Mealie, a game server for the kids: you use the apps, and we keep them running and updated. The apps are made by their own open-source communities; we host them. It's apps without a server: no hardware at home, nothing to install or update, and no ports to open. Each app gets a secure address on your own subdomain, behind your ElfHosted login, and your apps talk to each other inside your own stack. Every app is backed up daily, and you can pick a date and restore it yourself. With ElfHosted Flex you run lots of lightweight apps from the Flex collection and swap them whenever you like. Stuck? Sam, the assistant in your ElfHosted dashboard, looks at your actual apps, tells you what's wrong, and asks before fixing it, and the docs are there whenever you want to dig in. Think of it as managed app hosting for households: running things yourself is a great hobby, and this is for when you'd rather just use the apps. Almost every app and plan starts with a 7-day trial. ElfHosted is not affiliated with the open-source projects it hosts. And when Sam can't sort it, real people from our team are on Discord around the clock, in a family-friendly, carefully moderated server.
