First, let's talk about docker. Docker containers are basically lightweight Linux virtual machines that you can customize for whatever you want and then deploy them - and offly gives you completely free access to docker containers so that you don't have to install docker.

Yes, offly is 100% free. There are no billing options nor donations - and we never ask you to upgrade. Our policy is that there will guaranteed never be any billing options in the future.* Our service will always be free.

We understand why this may be confusing - but we promise that we won't charge you for anything whatsoever. We only require an account so you can have your own separate containers and also for verification.

No, we intentionally restrict users from having root access inside your offly containers, both for our safety and your safety. Every container you create will include a user with your offly account username, rather than using root.

While there may be other free hosting platforms out there, they're very hard to find, and most of the time they come with a catch - such as making you pay later. They are also confusing, slow, and lack explanation or are very complicated, while offly is extremely simplified which is good for beginners in docker. We also don't go around changing everything like popular companies do either.
