I've been using Dokploy and it is lovely. Solid and stable for the last 12 months running production apps. First time in ages I got the Heroku vibe again.

This is exactly how I felt too. I was using portainer before, but the polish on Dokploy is insane.

On the contrary, to me it seemed bare-bones.

Breaks when you use anything but bash as root user shell. Breaks if you have images in private registries with swarm. Breaks if you wanna restrict the API key access to just one project (the key can access all projects lol).

It's a great piece of software, I use it myself. But calling it polished in any way is a bit of a stretch.

There isn't another project that integrates a reverse proxy with their docker management UI. You either need to go the docker compose way of adding labels for a reverse proxy to pick up from or use another proxy management UI.

I tried coolify couldn't get it running properly on the same VPS I got Dokploy to just work on the first try.

I tried SwiftWave and Coolify for that. They seem to support that if I understood you correctly.

Exactly, I do not have any other experience but with Heroku but I was taken aback how easy was to setup and since then just deploy and almost everything work as expected.

I also love their template gallery of pre-existing projects, managed to setup auxiliary stuff like Plausible and Ghost which I wouldn't have done if it wasn't for the one-click install.
