BYOS: Bring Your Own Server

Introducing BYOS (Bring Your Own Server). Your code stays on your server. Privacy-first remote development.

What is BYOS?

BYOS stands for "Bring Your Own Server" - connect your own development server to CloudForge. Your code and data never leave your server; everything stays on your infrastructure.

How It Works

  1. Get a connection token from CloudForge
  2. Install CloudForge Agent on your server
  3. Agent connects to CloudForge via outbound connection
  4. Real-time communication over WebSocket

Benefits

  • Privacy - Code never leaves your server
  • Security - No firewall configuration needed (outbound connection)
  • Flexibility - Connect any VPS, cloud instance, or home server
  • Transparency - Agent is open source

Supported Environments

Works with Linux, macOS, and Windows (WSL). Docker environments are also supported.
