Why Switch

Why developers choose WebSlop

code

Code in Your Browser

Koyeb requires a local dev environment, Dockerfile, or GitHub repo for every deployment. WebSlop lets you create, edit, and deploy apps entirely from the browser with a full Monaco editor.

Auto-Sleep Saves Resources

Koyeb's free services run 24/7, eating through your nano allocation. WebSlop auto-sleeps idle apps after 30 minutes and wakes them on request, so you get more out of your free tier.

More RAM on Free Tier

Koyeb nano instances get 256 MB RAM. WebSlop's free tier gives each app 512 MB — enough to run Express with middleware, templating engines, and real workloads.

FAQ

Common questions about switching from Koyeb

How does Koyeb's free tier compare to WebSlop's?▾
Koyeb gives you 2 free nano services with 256 MB RAM and 0.1 vCPU each, running 24/7 in Frankfurt or Washington. WebSlop gives you 75 compute hours/month with 512 MB RAM and 0.5 CPU per app, with auto-sleep to stretch your hours further. WebSlop also includes a browser editor that Koyeb lacks.
Does Koyeb have a browser-based code editor?▾
No. Koyeb requires you to deploy via GitHub, GitLab, or Docker images. There is no built-in editor for writing or modifying code. WebSlop includes a full Monaco editor (VS Code's engine) with IntelliSense and real-time collaborative editing.
Can I deploy a Node.js app on Koyeb without Docker?▾
Koyeb supports buildpack-based deployment from a Git repo, but the process is less streamlined than WebSlop's browser-based approach. On WebSlop, you can create an app and start coding in the browser immediately — no Git repo, Dockerfile, or CLI required.
Which has better Node.js support — WebSlop or Koyeb?▾
WebSlop is purpose-built for Node.js with managed runtimes (Node 18, 20, 22), automatic npm install from package.json, and a tuned process manager. Koyeb is language-agnostic and supports Node.js via Docker or buildpacks, but doesn't offer Node-specific tooling.
Is WebSlop or Koyeb better for hobby projects?▾
For hobby Node.js projects, WebSlop is generally better: you get a browser editor for quick changes, auto-sleep to conserve hours, and 512 MB RAM per app. Koyeb is a good choice if you need Docker-based deployments or multi-region availability.
