What is webapp.io?

Webapp.io is a hyper-optimized DevOps platform for webapps. We build testing VMs in seconds every time you push code to GitHub, GitLab, or BitBucket.
  • Our VMs automatically hibernate when they aren’t being used
  • We let you duplicate VMs to make copies of your stack and run acceptance tests in parallel
  • We take snapshots of the VM as it builds, so that future builds can entirely skip docker pull or npm install

​
What happens when I sign up?

  1. You’ll install webapp.io onto a GitHub, GitLab or BitBucket repository
  2. Our onboarding will guide you to build a Layerfile which defines your VM build
  3. You commit your Layerfile, and we’ll automatically build it into a VM every time you push a commit.

​
What can serverless VMs be used for?

Our users primarily use serverless VMs for three things:
  1. Preview environments - by making a Layerfile with the EXPOSE WEBSITE directive, you immediately get an environment deployed for every pull request.
  2. Acceptance tests - by making a Layerfile with SPLIT 5, you can build your stack and fork it five times to run tests in parallel.
  3. Hosting - by using webapp.io hosting, you can make ephemeral environments stick around and not shut off.
At webapp.io, we’re building a serverless VM platform. You can even create multiple Layerfiles and combine them into powerful DevOps workflows to help your team ship 10x faster.
