QuickStack is a self-hosted PaaS solution designed to simplify the management of your applications on one or more virtual private servers (VPS).
Developed as part of a student project by [glueh-wyy-huet](https://github.com/glueh-wyy-huet) and [biersoeckli](https://github.com/biersoeckli) at the [Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences](https://ost.ch/), QuickStack provides a scalable and cost-effective alternative to commercial cloud PaaS offerings like Vercel, Digital Ocean App Platform or Azure App Service.
