|  | ### Caprover | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | #### 👍 | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | - 👍 Bigger library of applications. | ||||||
|  | - 👍 Easy set-up using a DigitalOcean one-click app. | ||||||
|  | - 👍 Works without a domain name or a public IP, in non-HTTPS mode (good for homeservers). | ||||||
|  | - 👍 Deploy any app with a `docker-compose.yml` file as a "One Click App" via the web interface. | ||||||
|  | - 👍 Multi-node (multi-server) set-up works by default. | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | #### 👎 | ||||||
|  |  | ||||||
|  | - 👎 Single-file app definition format, difficult to tweak using entrypoint scripts. | ||||||
|  | - 👎 Nginx instead of Traefik for load-balancing. | ||||||
|  | - 👎 Command-line client requires NodeJS / `npm`. | ||||||
|  | - 👎 [Requires 512MB RAM for a single app](https://github.com/caprover/caprover/issues/28). | ||||||
|  | - 👎 [Backup/restore is "experimental"](https://caprover.com/docs/backup-and-restore.html), and doesn't currently help with backing up Docker volumes. | ||||||
|  | - 👎 Exposes its bespoke management interface to the internet via HTTPS by default. | ||||||
