Easily deploy open source apps with the new ˜Deploy to DigitalOcean button and other App Platform enhancements

What's this blog post about?

DigitalOcean introduces the "Deploy to DigitalOcean" button to assist open source software (OSS) developers in deploying their apps on various cloud platforms. The button is designed to simplify the process of creating and maintaining instructions for app deployment, which can be a challenging task. By embedding this button and associated link in README.md files or web pages, users can focus more on their OSS projects without worrying about writing tasks and updating instructions. There are no costs associated with adding the "Deploy to DigitalOcean" button, and users will be presented with pricing for the DigitalOcean App Platform upon clicking the button. The App Platform supports various popular languages and frameworks and offers three pricing tiers: Starter, Basic, and Professional. Additionally, new features have been introduced for App Platform, such as pre and post deploy jobs, additional pricing plans, and a memory increase for the Development Database.
