A question for this thread - has anyone continued Synology NAS and Docker deployments for their WebApp hosting? I have a client who loves Synology, needs to host an app, and wants to do it in-house. If anyone has had luck with this since this last posting, I’d like to know. While I do love Xojo Cloud we do have clients that push for self-hosting solutions. Thanks for any updated feedback on this topic!
I’m still using Xojo Web Apps in Docker Containers on Synology:

What model Synology NAS does your client have?
Recent plus models support the Synology VMM package, which is QEMU with a GUI front end. I’ve got a couple of API1 WE apps running on a minimal Debian VM on a 218+ and it’s solid like a rock. You can also leverage the Synology reverse proxy and certbot for https.
