VPS hosting
This hub links to the supported VPS/hosting guides and explains how cloud deployments work at a high level.
Pick a provider

- Fly.io: Fly.io
- Hetzner (Docker): Hetzner
- GCP (Compute Engine): GCP
- exe.dev (VM + HTTPS proxy): exe.dev
- AWS (EC2/Lightsail/free tier): works well too. Video guide: https://x.com/techfrenAJ/status/2014934471095812547
How cloud setups work
- The Gateway runs on the VPS and owns state + workspace.
- You connect from your laptop/phone via the Control UI or Tailscale/SSH.
- Treat the VPS as the source of truth and back up the state + workspace.
- Secure default: keep the Gateway on loopback and access it via SSH tunnel or Tailscale Serve.
If you bind to
lan/tailnet, requiregateway.auth.tokenorgateway.auth.password.
Remote access: Gateway remote

Using nodes with a VPS
You can keep the Gateway in the cloud and pair nodes on your local devices
(Mac/iOS/Android/headless). Nodes provide local screen/camera/canvas and system.run
capabilities while the Gateway stays in the cloud.
