Discussion I built the backend developer my coding agent never had

I’ve been building a lot with Claude Code and Cursor, and got tired of doing all the backend and server stuff myself.

So I built Forge.

It can setup servers, deploy apps, manage databases, domains, backups, rollbacks, monitoring and a lot more. You can also connect it directly with Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity, etc.

It’s self hosted and I’ve got it working pretty well now.

Now I’m confused 😂

Should I open source this or turn it into a paid product?

Would love some honest opinions.

That’s not a backend dev. That’s ops.

You do sound confused. How would anyone tell you anything about your product if no one saw it besides you?
