LightCloud - Cloud console organized like a file system
Show HN: LightCloud – A cloud console organised like file system
LightCloud is a cloud console that organizes your projects like a file system, making it intuitive to manage full-stack deployments. Connect your GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket repository, and LightCloud automatically detects whether to deploy a static site to a global CDN or a container to Cloud Run. It provisions managed Postgres with encrypted credentials, creates preview URLs for every branch and pull request, and scales idle containers to zero to save costs. You can even deploy directly from Claude Code with a single command, streamlining your workflow from commit to live URL.
Deploy from Claude Code. One command to install. Then ask 'Deploy this project to Light Cloud.' Claude signs you up if you have no account, asks two questions, and hands back a live URL.

It took me minutes to find what it actually cost, which is $50/month for the cheapest, 256MB deployment.
Looks cool, but this info should be easier to get to. Tell us what resources we get in a "nano", "micro", etc. and how much they cost. That's the first and usually only thing I look at with these.

The site claims they have an editor "ICE" as open-source software. But that is a lie: it is not open source, but shareware or such.
They also accept contributions released only under the no-commercial-use-allowed license, so any dual licensing under a commercial-use-allowed license would be out of the window once a contribution gets merged.
Not sure what their business model is if they forbid commercial use. I guess selling commercial use licenses in violation of the no-commercial-use-allowed license?

A pretty load-bearing theme, full stop.
