2024 Year in Review - A Big Year for Cleavr 🚀

As we kick off 2025, we’re taking a moment to reflect on an incredible year of progress, innovation, and listening to your feedback. 2024 was a major year for Cleavr, packed with new features, expanded integrations, platform improvements, and quality-of-life upgrades that make deploying and managing your apps even smoother.

Here’s a look back at what we accomplished together:

Major Platform Updates

Ubuntu 24.04 Support
Early adopters rejoice! We brought Ubuntu 24.04 out of the lab, ensuring your servers stay modern, secure, and powerful.

Node 22 Now Available
We added support for Node 22, keeping your apps up-to-date with the latest Node.js features and performance improvements.

Expanded Language and Framework Support
We introduced official support for:

  • PostgreSQL 17
  • PHP 8.4
  • Strapi 5
  • Directus 11

Plus, the Laravel Reverb and Deployment Script features graduated from the lab into full availability!


Enhanced App Management and Server Tools

Redis Configuration in the UI
Redis can now be fully configured right from the Cleavr dashboard — no SSH terminal required.

New Health Report Feature
Our new Health Report tool monitors your servers and websites, alerting you when disk, memory, CPU, or website status issues are detected. Stay ahead of potential problems before they become critical.

Site Staging Improvements
Site Staging now automatically syncs deployment hooks and VC Profile details, making it even easier to manage complex workflows.

Port Check Functionality
Need to troubleshoot a service? You can now initiate a port check directly within Cleavr.


New Quality of Life Improvements

Sign Out of Other Devices
Security matters. You can now sign out of any device you’ve previously logged into Cleavr from.

SSH Key Bank
Save your SSH keys for easy reuse when adding new servers or projects.

Vite Build Hook for AdonisJS Apps
If you're building with AdonisJS, a new Vite Build hook makes it easier to compile frontend assets during deployment.

Improved Monitoring and Deployment Pipelines
We crushed bugs affecting GitHub Actions deployments, server health monitoring, and load balancer setups — making your deployments more reliable and stress-free.


Bug Fixes and Backend Improvements

Behind the scenes, we rolled out dozens of fixes and small tweaks, including:

  • Better server linking and unlinking
  • Improved handling of Laravel Horizon
  • Enhanced UX when servers become unreachable
  • More robust GitHub Actions support (now supporting v4 API)
  • Updates to API providers like Porkbun and Telegram notifications
  • Resolved various UI and deployment process issues

Looking Ahead

2024 was all about empowering developers with better tools, more control, and smoother workflows — and 2025 is shaping up to be even bigger.
We're already working on major new features and enhancements based on your feedback (and a few surprises 👀).

From the entire Cleavr team, thank you for being part of this journey. Your feedback, support, and passion continue to drive everything we do.

Here’s to a successful, innovative 2025! 🎉
