Cloud in a Bottle

Cloud in a Bottle is a platform for self-hosting apps. Each app runs in its own container; the Cloud in a Bottle router terminates TLS, handles auth, and proxies requests to apps by subdomain (https://{app_name}.{zone_domain}/).

You interact with a zone through the bottle CLI, which injects auth for you. Prefer bottle over raw HTTP requests so you never have to handle tokens by hand.
