Dokku user and now CapRover user. I have to say it's my favorite for spinning up a new project. I don't know if I'd use CapRover for anything production just yet but I love it for development. For me it's the perfect "stick this server, client, DB combo on a server, add HTTPS, and don't make me think about it".
I feel confident that anything I throw on CapRover I could move to "more production-level" setup easily if I wanted; using managed db's, containers, block storage etc on AWS/Google/etc. Like, if I can get it working in CapRover I know I can run it anywhere and CapRover makes it super easy to get my idea hosted and running "in the cloud" quickly. I don't know why but seeing my project run full-time, verses just when I'm developing locally, is a huge motivator for me so CapRover is perfect for me in the same way I use Caddy for my local services. I want fast, safe, and easy with the knowledge I can scale up with some work in the future but I don't need it for day 1.
