Sample Apps


CapRover is built on top of Docker container. Therefore, pretty much all applications can be deployed on CapRover. As mentioned in captain-definition docs, there is a few simple versions of captain-definition for most popular web languages such as NodeJS, PHP, python and ruby.

However, CapRover is not limited to these languages. For example, it can deploy a go app. You just need a Dockerfile for it.
