What Hacker News says
4 sourcesHey, great project! However, it is not really open source [0]. Do you mind updating your message and also on Github's README? The correct term would be 'source available'

133 points · Open discussionHi there !
We used to host our sites on Netlify, but our eyes fill with glitter when we hear open source and self-hosted. So, we built Meli, which essentially is a Netlify alternative that lets you deploy static sites and frontend applications with ease, featuring per-branch deployments, web/slack/mattermost/email hooks, an API, and a way to manage organizations, teams and sites easily.
We built Meli on top of Caddy, a very powerful HTTP server (https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy). We've used Typescript, Node (backend), React (frontend) and MongoDB for the database.
It's a beta, but you can install super easily with Docker Compose: https://docs.meli.sh/get-started/installation
Check us out at https://github.com/getmeli/meli !
Looking forward for your feedback :)
