In this guide we will show you how to easily deploy your SuperStarter SaaS with Fly.io.

​
Why host your SaaS on fly.io?

Self-hosting your SaaS app as a docker image allows you to have complete control over your server environment. It ensures better privacy, contributes to cost savings if managed correctly, and offers you the flexibility to customize your server setup to suit your specific needs. It can also give your application a performance boost compared to hosting on a serverless platform like Vercel, since it removes cold starts.
