Alexandru Badiu works at Branded Entertainment Network by day and is an amateur game developer and musician by night.
He’s also a full-time Mr T impersonator and a long time ago cofounded Drupal Romania.
From time to time he also likes to ride pig statues while pretending to be Bastian from Neverending Story.
Ever since I discovered Heroku I’ve been looking for something like it that I could host myself. Fortunately, today there are a lot of alternatives and I’ll be focusing on two, Dokku and Flynn, designed for two different use cases. Both are easy to use and supported by DigitalOcean so I will show you how to install and use them.
