control plane ready docs source

Deploy apps and databases on your own server.

Aeroplane gives you a self-hosted control plane for apps, databases, domains, logs, backups, and updates on infrastructure you own.

Get Started

Bootstrap node

curl -fsSL https://get.aeroplane.run | sh

After bootstrap

Your server gets a cockpit.

Aeroplane keeps the powerful parts visible: deploys, databases, domains, logs, backups, and host maintenance.

01

Install the control plane

One script prepares the host, starts the services, and leaves the stack in a place you can inspect.

02

Attach projects

Create apps and databases from the same interface, then wire domains, env vars, logs, and backups around them.

03

Keep it running

Use the panels you need day to day: deployments, database access, host health, updates, and storage.

Deploy anything

Import from Railway

Move a Railway project into your self-hosted Aeroplane control plane without rebuilding the stack by hand. Services, variables, databases, and domains arrive as a project you can inspect and deploy.

01

Connect Railway

Use a Railway personal API token to pull projects, environments, services, and deployment settings into view.

02

Choose what moves

Pick the target environment and services, skip Railway-only variables, and decide whether databases should be recreated.

03

Land in Aeroplane

Aeroplane creates the project, links app variables to new database credentials, imports custom domains where possible, and can queue deploys.
