# Vibecarbon

> Launch full-stack apps in minutes on the VPS provider of your choice. Auth, billing, and AI-guardrails built-in. Automated backup, restore, scale, replication, and failover.

Vibecarbon is a CLI that generates production-ready SaaS applications (React 19, Vite, Hono, self-hosted Supabase) and automates their DevOps: Docker Compose or Kubernetes deploys, high availability with one-command failover, worker scaling, and automated backups. Install with `npm install -g vibecarbon`.

- [Vibecarbon Is Fair Source](https://vibecarbon.com/blog/vibecarbon-is-fair-source.md): The vibecarbon CLI ships under FSL-1.1-MIT: free to use and build from source for anything that isn't a competing product, converting to MIT two years after each release.
