What is a Forgejo VPS?

Run Forgejo as your Git forge on your own VPS.

Forgejo gives your team one home for code: private repositories, issues, pull requests with reviews, a wiki and a package registry, in a fast web interface that feels familiar if you know GitHub. Instead of paying per seat on a hosted platform, you run a self-hosted Git server on a ZAP-Hosting VPS. Coolify deploys Forgejo and its database in one click, and you attach your own domain with HTTPS right in the Coolify dashboard.

Because it is a KVM VPS with full root access, you are not limited to the app template. Register a Forgejo Runner for Actions next to the forge, map Git over SSH the way you like, schedule your own dump and rsync jobs, or add monitoring and SSO on the same server. Your repositories, users and CI logs stay on infrastructure you control, in the location you choose.

Run Forgejo as your Git forge on your own VPS.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Forgejo

Answers to the most important questions before you start.

Forgejo is free software, so there are no license or per-seat fees. You only pay for the VPS it runs on. The price depends on your VPS package (RAM, CPU, storage), term and location; current prices for every plan appear live in the pricing section above. Longer terms of 90, 180 or 365 days come with a discount.

  • Software: free, no per-seat fees
  • VPS: billed by the resources you choose

Order a VPS, open it in the ZapX panel and go to One-Click Apps, which are powered by Coolify. Pick Forgejo and deploy it; Coolify starts Forgejo together with its database. Then open the web interface, finish the initial setup and create your admin account. No hand-written Docker Compose file or binary install is needed. One-Click Apps guide in the Help Center

Forgejo itself is lightweight, so a smaller plan covers a solo developer or a small team working mostly with code and issues. Plan for more RAM and CPU if many people work at once, if you store large repositories or LFS files, or if a Forgejo Runner builds on the same server. You can upgrade the VPS later when your team grows.

  • Solo or small team: start with a smaller plan
  • Larger team or big repos: more RAM and storage
  • Actions on the same VPS: extra CPU and RAM for builds

Yes. Forgejo ships with Actions, a CI/CD system with workflows similar to GitHub Actions. Jobs run on a Forgejo Runner that you register with your instance, either on the same VPS or on a second one. Running both on one server works well for small pipelines; for heavy builds, give the runner its own resources.

Yes. Forgejo has a built-in migration that imports repositories from GitHub, GitLab, Gitea and other forges, optionally with issues, pull requests, labels, milestones and releases. Forgejo started as a fork of Gitea, so moving from Gitea feels familiar. You can also keep a repository as a pull mirror while you switch.

You choose the term at checkout: 3, 30, 90, 180 or 365 days. Longer terms lower the effective price. You can cancel anytime; the cancellation takes effect at the end of the booked term, and you can undo it before then. Payments run through Stripe with methods such as PayPal, credit card, Apple Pay and Google Pay, depending on your country.

Yes. Point an A record for a subdomain such as git.yourdomain.com to your VPS IP, add the domain to the Forgejo service in Coolify and it requests the HTTPS certificate for you. For cloning over SSH, map Forgejo's SSH service to its own port so it does not clash with the server's own SSH login; with full root access, you decide how it is set up. How to set DNS records

ZAP-Hosting offers VPS locations in Europe and America, and you choose the one closest to your team and your CI traffic. Teams in North America often start with Ashburn, Dallas or Los Angeles. You pick the location at checkout, where all available regions are listed.

Why is my Forgejo web interface so slow?
Once you confirm, I can check CPU, RAM and disk usage on your VPS and read the Forgejo container logs. Slow pages often come from a runner build using most resources or from a running indexer job; I'll show you what I find and suggest options.
A runner job is using most of the RAM.
Then you could limit the runner's parallel jobs, move the runner to a second VPS or add RAM. I can show you an upgrade preview to review in the panel before anything changes.
