Deploy and Host Open Wearables on Railway

Open Wearables is a self-hosted platform that unifies health data from multiple wearable devices (Garmin, Whoop, Apple Health, etc.) through a single REST API. Developers can integrate once instead of maintaining separate implementations for each provider, while individuals can self-host to maintain complete control over their health data.

About Hosting Open Wearables

Open Wearables is designed for self-hosting with minimal setup complexity. The platform runs as a complete stack with FastAPI backend, React frontend, PostgreSQL database, Redis for caching, and Celery for background data syncing. Each deployment serves a single organization (no multi-tenancy), making it straightforward to manage. The platform handles OAuth flows for wearable providers, normalizes data across different devices, and exposes everything through a unified API. Deploying on Railway means you can get production-ready infrastructure running in minutes without manual server configuration, while maintaining full data sovereignty.

Common Use Cases

Fitness & Wellness Apps: Coaches and trainers can integrate user wearables to provide personalized recommendations and track progress across different devices
Healthcare Integration: Healthcare providers can aggregate patient health data from various wearables for monitoring, alerts, and clinical decision support
Personal Health Control: Individuals can self-host to connect their own devices, explore their health metrics, and maintain complete privacy without third-party data sharing

Dependencies for Open Wearables Hosting

PostgreSQL: Primary database for storing user data, health metrics, and platform configuration
Redis: Caching layer and message broker for background task queue
