01Build the foundation
Understand your Linux server
Learn SSH, users, permissions, processes, ports, logs, and the basic checks that keep a VPS predictable.
Start the learning pathPractical DevOps learning
From your first SSH connection to reliable production releases.
DeployEasy helps developers learn the complete path from source code to a secure, observable application on a VPS. Follow practical guides, use the browser tools, and make each release easier to verify.

The DeployEasy approach
✓Learn the layer before automating it.
Every guide connects a deployment action with the checks, security decisions, and recovery steps that make it safe to run in production.
- 01Prepare the server and secure access
- 02Package the application and its services
- 03Connect the domain, reverse proxy, and HTTPS
- 04Automate releases and verify the result
A clear path to production
Build skills that stay useful after the tutorial.
Start with the fundamentals, then connect them into a deployment workflow you can understand, repeat, and troubleshoot.
02Ship repeatably
Deploy with Docker and CI/CD
Turn a working application into a repeatable release with Docker, GitHub Actions, registries, and environment variables.
Explore deployment guides03Operate with confidence
Protect and troubleshoot production
Put applications behind Nginx and HTTPS, then use monitoring, backups, health checks, and rollback plans when things go wrong.
Open DevOps toolsWhat you will learn
A deployment workflow you can explain to your future self.
Good operations are not just a list of commands. They are a sequence of decisions: what should be public, what should be backed up, how a release is verified, and how you recover when it fails.
Read the documentationServer access
SSH keys, users, permissions, ports, and firewall basics.
Application delivery
Docker images, Compose files, registries, and environment variables.
Traffic and security
Domains, DNS, Nginx reverse proxy, HTTPS, and security headers.
Production care
Logs, health checks, memory pressure, backups, and rollback.
