About Shipoff

A modern Platform-as-a-Service built with passion and cutting-edge technology

Created bydev-raghvendra

Shipoff was created by dev-raghvendra as a demonstration of modern software engineering practices, distributed systems architecture, and full-stack development expertise. This project showcases production-ready development skills across the entire technology stack.

What is Shipoff?

Shipoff is a production-ready, developer-friendly Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) that automates the entire deployment pipeline—from code push to production. Users simply connect their GitHub repositories, configure build commands, and get automatic deployments on every push with zero configuration overhead.

Live Platform Features:

  • Deploy static sites, full-stack applications (Node.js, Python, PHP), and modern frameworks
  • Automatic scaling, CDN distribution, and comprehensive monitoring
  • Real-time log streaming and observability
  • Team collaboration and project management
  • Zero-downtime deployments with automatic rollback

Shipoff competes with platforms like Vercel, Netlify, and Railway, demonstrating expertise in distributed systems, Kubernetes orchestration, event-driven architecture, and production-grade frontend development.

Project Summary

Architecture Overview

Shipoff is a microservices-based PaaS platform built with modern distributed systems principles. The architecture consists of:

Frontend Applications

  • • Console Dashboard: Next.js 15 with React 19
  • • Landing Page: Marketing site with docs
  • • 60+ Radix UI components
  • • TanStack Query for state

Backend Services

  • • 6 Microservices: Auth, Projects, Orchestrator, Gateway, Logs, Ingress
  • • gRPC: Type-safe inter-service communication
  • • Redis Streams: Event-driven architecture

Technology Stack

Frontend

  • • Next.js 15.2.4 with App Router
  • • React 19 with TypeScript
  • • Tailwind CSS v4
  • • TanStack Query v5
  • • NextAuth.js for authentication
  • • Framer Motion for animations

Backend

  • • TypeScript 5.8+ (strict mode)
  • • Node.js 18+
  • • gRPC with Protocol Buffers
  • • PostgreSQL with Prisma ORM
  • • Redis Streams for events
  • • Express.js for API Gateway

Infrastructure

  • • Kubernetes for orchestration
  • • Docker with multi-stage builds
  • • Fluent Bit for log aggregation
  • • Prometheus & Grafana for monitoring
  • • Cloudflare CDN for edge distribution
  • • S3-compatible storage

Key Features & Capabilities

1. Automated Deployment Pipeline

GitHub webhook integration with a complex state machine managing deployment lifecycle: QUEUED → BUILDING → PROVISIONING → PRODUCTION / FAILED / INACTIVE. Automatic rollback on failures, production protection, and multi-stage container builds.

2. Project Management System

Support for static and dynamic projects with framework auto-detection. Multi-step configuration wizard, GitHub OAuth integration, environment variable management, and domain selection with validation.

3. Resource Management

Free tier with 5-minute build timeouts, 512MB memory limits, automatic scale-to-zero for dynamic projects, real-time memory monitoring, and graceful shutdown handling.

4. Real-Time Log Streaming

Fluent Bit DaemonSet for log collection, gRPC log service, WebSocket streaming to frontend, full-text search across deployment logs, and structured JSON logging.

5. Team Collaboration

Team creation and management, role-based access control (RBAC), project sharing, member invitations, and ownership transfer capabilities.

Supported Runtimes

Node.js

  • • Static: React, Vue, Angular
  • • Dynamic: Express, Nest.js, Fastify

Python

  • • Django
  • • Flask
  • • FastAPI

PHP

  • • Laravel
  • • Symfony

Technical Complexities

  • • Distributed System Coordination: Managing state across multiple services
  • • Event-Driven Architecture: Redis Streams for reliable event processing
  • • Container Lifecycle Management: Complex orchestration of build and runtime containers
  • • State Machine Implementation: Enforcing business rules at multiple layers
  • • Real-Time Features: WebSocket streaming for logs and updates
  • • Monorepo Management: Efficient build and dependency management with Turborepo
  • • Type Safety: End-to-end TypeScript with gRPC code generation
  • • Production Readiness: Error handling, logging, monitoring, and observability

Development Practices

Monorepo Structure: Turborepo with pnpm workspaces for efficient dependency resolution and parallel builds. Shared packages for proto definitions, gRPC clients, Redis utilities, and common services.

Type Safety: TypeScript strict mode across all packages with runtime validation using Zod schemas. Generated TypeScript clients for gRPC services ensuring type safety end-to-end.

Infrastructure as Code: Kubernetes manifests, Docker images, and service configurations version controlled. GitOps workflows with ArgoCD for automated deployments.
