Deploy and Host BentoPDF on Railway

BentoPDF is a privacy-first, client-side PDF toolkit designed to let users manipulate, edit, merge, and process PDF files directly within their browser. All processing occurs locally, ensuring files are never uploaded to a server, providing security and privacy for the user.

About Hosting BentoPDF

Hosting BentoPDF involves deploying a modern web application that leverages front-end technologies such as Vite, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS, alongside integrating powerful libraries like PDFLib.js, PDF.js, and PDFKit for PDF processing. While BentoPDF emphasizes client-side operations, deploying it on a platform like Railway enables streamlined infrastructure management, horizontal and vertical scaling, and seamless updates. Deployment can be performed using Docker and Docker Compose, which facilitates rapid setup, auto-restart, and security best practices (non-root execution, high port numbers). Maintaining a Railway deployment means you can offer a distraction-free, robust PDF toolkit accessible via the web for personal use, teams, or educational institutions.

Common Use Cases

Merging, splitting, and organizing PDF documents within a browser, preserving privacy
Editing content, adding watermarks, headers, footers, or signatures to documents without server-side dependencies
Converting between formats (images, markdown, text, office documents) and performing secure operations like encryption, redaction, and metadata editing
