A one-click PaaS that makes deploying web applications feel like magic. Built for developers who want to ship fast without the ops overhead.
42helv was born from a simple observation: too many talented developers waste weeks wrestling with infrastructure instead of building features. The platform targets teams who value velocity and want their deployment pipeline to be invisible — a solved problem that just works.
Before 42helv, each new project meant provisioning servers, configuring nginx, setting up PostgreSQL, managing SSL certificates, and wiring up custom domains. Teams spent 2–3 days per deployment. Small agencies with multiple client projects saw this cost compound across every engagement. Deploy updates were manual, rollbacks were risky, and there was no consistent workflow across projects or team members.
We built 42helv as a multi-tenant PaaS where each application runs in an isolated Docker container. Developers connect their GitHub repository, and 42helv automatically detects the language, builds the project, provisions a database if needed, and serves it behind a custom domain with automatic SSL. The entire flow — from repository connection to live URL — takes under sixty seconds.
The platform itself runs on Rails 8 with a React frontend. PostgreSQL handles metadata and billing. Each deployed application runs in an isolated Docker container with resource limits, health checks, and automatic restart policies. A background job queue manages provisioning, deployments, and database service orchestration. The build pipeline detects project language, installs dependencies, runs compilation steps, and generates optimized production images.
42helv is live and accepting deployments. Connect your repository and ship your next project in under a minute.
