Free Koa hosting
EasyHost runs Koa, a minimal Node.js web framework, in an always-on Node.js container for $0. No credit card is needed, and your agent can deploy it with one instruction.
What you get
- An always-on container with 512 MB of RAM and 1 CPU
- A URL at
<app-slug>.easyhost.fun, plus custom domains with HTTPS - One Postgres 16 database and one S3 bucket per project
- Up to 3 apps and 5 schedules per project
How Koa builds and runs
| Step | What EasyHost uses |
|---|---|
| Build | your package build script if you have one; skipped otherwise |
| Start | scripts.start, then main, index.js or server.js |
| Runtime env | NODE_ENV=production, PORT=3000, HOST=0.0.0.0 |
Listen on process.env.PORT and bind to 0.0.0.0.
import Koa from "koa";
const app = new Koa();
app.use((ctx) => {
ctx.body = "Hello from EasyHost";
});
app.listen(Number(process.env.PORT), "0.0.0.0");Deploy it
npx ezhst projects create my-project --link npx ezhst apps create my-app npx ezhst link --project <project-slug> --app <app-slug> npx ezhst env import .env npx ezhst deploy
Limits and caveats
Koa ships without a router or body parser. Add @koa/router and koa-bodyparser for the examples on this site.
Apps run in one region, with no edge network, preview deployments or Git integration. One build runs at a time.

Frequently asked questions
Is Koa hosting on EasyHost really free?
Yes. It costs $0 per month with no credit card and no trial period, within the published limits.
Does my Koa app sleep when idle?
No. EasyHost apps run in an always-on container and do not sleep when idle.
Do I need a Dockerfile for Koa?
No. EasyHost builds an image from your source using the commands it detects or the ones you set.
