Lightweight Git hosting you control
Gogs hosting on Appbox. Run a self-hosted Git service with a familiar web interface, issues, and wiki support without operating a full bare-metal stack.
What you get with Gogs hosting
A compact Git forge focused on core workflows, packaged for Appbox with HTTPS and the resources shown in the versions table.
Git over HTTP and SSH
Push and clone repositories using the Web UI URL and the SSH port listed on your installed app page after provisioning.
Users and organizations
Create teams, split ownership, and mirror how you already structure access in larger forges.
Browser-first workflow
Browse code, file history, and diffs from the same interface visitors use to sign in.
Issues and collaboration
Track work with issues, labels, and milestones so small teams do not need a separate tracker.
Embedded data store
Gogs keeps metadata in a bundled database (commonly SQLite on smaller installs), so you are not provisioning an external database server for a typical setup.
HTTPS on Appbox
The platform terminates TLS in front of your instance. You open the Web UI link from the panel and work over encrypted HTTP.

Day-to-day operations
How teams use Gogs after the first login.
Repositories and releases
Create repos from the dashboard, tag releases, and attach binaries when your workflow needs them.
Webhooks
Notify CI, chat, or custom endpoints when pushes or issues change so automation stays close to the repo.
Wiki per repository
Keep lightweight documentation beside the code instead of scattering notes across chat threads.
Persistent Git data
Objects and metadata live on Appbox storage tied to the instance, with backups following your normal Appbox routine.
