Cohostly docs
Put an app online, share it with the right people, and give it a database, AI and a clock without running any servers.
Cohostly is a place to put an app online and share it. You bring the app. Cohostly gives it an address, decides who may open it, keeps it asleep when nobody is using it, and lends it a few services so you do not have to build them yourself.
These docs cover the public tools: the cohostly command line, the @cohostly/sdk package your app can use, the services the platform lends your app (we call them bindings), the limits, and a set of small sample apps explained in everyday words.

0.1.xand the SDK on0.2.x. While the first number is 0, a new minor version may change how something works. Each package's changelog says when.
