Soft Serve
A self-hosted Developer Tools app you can run on your own server.
Soft Serve is an open, self-hosted developer tool — you install it on your own hardware and keep full control of your data. Because it runs on infrastructure you control, your data stays with you and there is no subscription required to keep using it.
Development happens in the open on GitHub; the repository has collected 7.2K stars so far. Repository activity was last recorded on Aug 12, 2026, and the project is classed as actively maintained in our snapshot.
Before you switch
Developer tools earn trust through activity: glance at recent commits, release cadence, and issue responses before adopting one. Most self-hosted dev tools install with Docker in minutes and can run beside your current stack while you evaluate them.
Like every project listed on SelfHosted, Soft Serve is developed in the open — you can read the code, follow development, and even contribute. Check the system requirements and the project’s own documentation linked on this page before installing.
