About this project

RapidServe is a production-grade, self-hosted deployment platform built to automate frontend and backend application deployments — similar to Vercel and Railway. The system orchestrates Docker container builds, uploads static assets to Amazon S3, and routes live traffic through a Cloudflare-powered reverse proxy. Each deployment runs in an isolated Docker environment, ensuring build reproducibility and security. A Redis queue coordinates asynchronous build jobs, while PostgreSQL persists deployment history, environment variables, and project metadata. The platform exposes a clean REST API and supports instant rollbacks, custom domain binding via subdomain routing, real-time build log streaming over WebSockets, and a developer-friendly dashboard. Built with Node.js and TypeScript, RapidServe demonstrates advanced distributed systems design, container orchestration, and cloud-native infrastructure engineering.
