Railway

to build Pull Sense

•15 reviews

Railway makes backend deployment ridiculously simple, providing a Heroku-like experience but with better pricing, flexibility, and scalability. Unlike alternatives that require extensive setup, Railway's auto-deploys, built-in databases, and easy environment management make it a go-to for modern cloud applications. The pay-as-you-go pricing ensures you're only paying for what you use, making it ideal for launching and scaling PullSense without unnecessary overhead. 🚀

Railway is really true to its tagline - Instant Deployments, Effortless Scale. It is super simple to deploy backend on railway and their marketplace has tremendous out of the box integrations which saved me a ton of time when building observability system.

to build Better Lyrics

Better Lyrics' backend is hosted on Railway. Initially built as a typescript express server - I ended up rewriting it in Go and Railway has handled it flawlessly every step of the way.
