Secretbox on Self-Hosted VPS
Host it on your own $5 VPS — your data, your domain, your rules, with no per-seat pricing ever.
Setup on Self-Hosted VPS
Get the code
Clone or download Secretbox from the repository (https://github.com/bensblueprints/env-secrets-manager-mvp) — the README documents the setup.
Deploy on your own server
Self-host on your own VPS or server — Docker or the one-command setup from the repo README. Point your domain at it when you're ready.
Keep your data yours
Your data stays on hardware you control — no third-party cloud, no per-seat pricing, no telemetry back to us.
Because Secretbox is self-hosted, "offline" is your call — run it on a LAN or behind a VPN and it never touches the public internet.
Secretbox on Self-Hosted VPS — honest answers
Is it really free on GitHub?
Yes. Secretbox is MIT-licensed at github.com/bensblueprints/env-secrets-manager-mvp and always will be. The $39 buys the packaged 1-click installer and setup; building from source is free.
Where do my secrets live?
In a SQLite database on your own server, envelope-encrypted per value. Nothing goes to us or any third-party cloud.
