Safebox: Open-source framework for managing self-hosted apps (Beta)
Hi everyone, we’ve been working on Safebox, an open-source framework that helps you install, manage, and access self-hosted applications such as Home Assistant, Nextcloud, and Jellyfin ect.
Safebox runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows (supporting both x86 and ARM64 architectures, even Raspberry Pi, Banana Pi hardwares also tested). It manages domain and subdomain setup, Let's Encrypt certificates, DNS configuration, and reverse proxy (nginx). It also includes a WireGuard-based remote access feature and a geo-redundant backup system (currently in development).
The project is in beta, and we’re looking for people interested in testing and sharing feedback. All information about Safebox and beta testing can be found in our Discord channel.
Try it using Docker:
docker run --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock safebox/framework-scheduler
Then open: http://localhost:8080

GitHub: https://github.com/safeboxnetwork/framework-scheduler
Discord: https://discord.gg/aBP8bz6N8J
We’d really appreciate any feedback or ideas for improvement.

Whats different/ unique about this compared to others in market?
Smells vibe coded all along
The difference is that Safebox can be installed by running a single docker command line, no deep technical knowledge needed after installation its accessible via web interface. Docker just needs to run in the background. The user interface is also very simple, and app installation, remote access, monitoring, and backup can all be managed from here (the last two features are still under development). Its like an all in one, out the box toolkit and it's not vibe coded, are you assuming that because of the github page? We used gitea, and we're moving everything over from there, thats is why it may seem sparse.
Have you done security testing?
Actually not. We're in the MVP release state
How does it differ from Coolify?
Notsafebox? Security is important before you trust us to do something stupid
@DrNutella You're absolutely right, we're currently in the beta phase and don't recommend using it for production purposes. Before we release it, we'll have a security audit done by a certified auditor.
@fohadeel The main difference is that Coolify focuses on app deployment for developers, while Safebox focuses on making self-hosted apps easy to install and manage for everyday users, with built-in remote access and geo-redundant backup features.
I haven't heard a GPL argument in a while. Did all that shit about if you do stuff with GPL code your shit also needs to be GPL as well, making commercial stuff like this pointless if needing the revenue to pay for the devs?
@TimboJones The software we released isn’t under the GPL, but it’s dual-licensed, you can use it under either the mozilla 2.0 or the MIT license. We don’t plan to sell the software itself, just offer some optional paid services later, like domains or special network features.
