Deploy Penpot via Coolify in one click, keep design files on your VPS with root access and pick a location in Europe or America.
American ExpressWhat is Penpot?
Penpot lets designers and developers work on the same files right in the browser, from first wireframes and design systems to clickable prototypes with code-ready handoff. It is an open-source design and prototyping platform, often called an open-source Figma alternative. Penpot hosting at ZAP-Hosting puts that workspace on your own VPS, installed in one click through the Coolify-based One-Click Apps, so every design file stays on a server you control.
Because the VPS is yours, you decide who can sign up, which domain your team opens and when Penpot gets updated. Root access over SSH lets you read the logs of the frontend, backend and exporter containers, adjust the configuration or run more Coolify apps such as Excalidraw next to Penpot. A daily automatic Backup is included, and with the ZapX Pass you can restore it and add manual Backups and snapshots.
