siteio

Your agent ships sites, backends, and full apps to your own server — one command.

Websites with a built-in backend, or full Docker apps — on your VPS, your domain, with automatic HTTPS. No vendor in the middle.

Install CLI

Your agent

macOS / Linux

Windows

Install siteio by reading and following https://siteio.houlahop.com/skill.md

curl -LsSf https://siteio.houlahop.com/install | sh

Windows binaries are not shipped yet (release builds for windows-x64 are disabled). Use macOS or Linux, or WSL with the Unix installer.

Already installed? Run siteio update to get the latest version.

Two ways to deploy

$ siteio sites

Websites. A folder of HTML deploys in seconds — and every site ships with auth, database, file storage, and realtime built in, if it wants them.

siteio sites deploy ./folder -n demo

$ siteio apps

Full Docker apps. Any image or Git repo, with env vars, volumes, logs, and rollback.

siteio apps create api --git <repo> --port 3000

Why siteio?

Deploy any folder to a subdomain in seconds

Self-hosted on your own VPS with Traefik

Automatic Let's Encrypt SSL certificates

No vendor lock-in. Own your infrastructure.

How It Works

Connect to your agent

Get a connection token from your siteio administrator and login.

siteio login -t <token>
# Or check status with: siteio status

Deploy a folder

Any static site folder becomes a live subdomain. Just one command.

siteio sites deploy ./my-site
# Deploys to https://my-site.yourdomain.com

Manage your sites

List, redeploy, or remove sites anytime.

siteio sites list
siteio sites rm my-site
