Heroku Alternative ...?
Hello devtalk !
Heroku are closing their free tier (dynos) later this month and I was wondering if you guys could recommend any alternatives that offer free tier. My application is for personal use, mainly for playing around a bit with frameworks, languages and building an API for my web frontend.
I don’t have customers and I don’t need 24/7 availability. The data is external so I don’t need a database either.
Any recommendations?
cheers

What about Render.com? Or netlify.com?
fly.io is also worth a look if you’re using a language they support

thanks for the advice @dewetblomerus - my service is dockerised so this could be just what I’m looking for. I will let you know how it goes.
