Railway is truly remarkable. I wish it was cheaper though, because currently, given the 10-10000x price difference in comparison to hetzner+coolify, using it in production is not justifiable for me. I am curious if you are planning on reducing prices once fully switched to railway metal?


I used it to deploy a web app written in PowerShell in a docker container. I loved the DX. If it wasn’t so expensive I’d probably use it in more stuff. But I’ll suffer more manual work on hetzner to save a little $$$


Is this like Ruby on Rails but for Heroku-esque cloud environments?


You could think of it like that, except it supports anything

But yes, convention over configuration (and we still expose the knobs if you want em)


My railway is currently write code, test on my local webserver and then rsync it to my dedicated machine.
