🚀 What is WASM?

WASM (Web App System Management) is a powerful CLI tool designed to simplify the deployment and management of web applications on Linux servers. It automates the entire process from cloning your code to serving it with Nginx/Apache, including SSL certificates and systemd services.

Key Capabilities

• 🌐 Site Management - Create and manage Nginx/Apache virtual hosts
• 🔒 SSL Certificates - Automated Let's Encrypt certificates via Certbot
• ⚙️ Service Management - Create and control systemd services
• 🚀 One-Command Deployment - Deploy full-stack applications instantly
• 🎯 Multi-Framework Support - Next.js, Node.js, Vite, Python, and more
• 🧭 Interactive Mode - Guided step-by-step deployment wizard

🏃 Quick Start

Deploy a Next.js Application

# One-liner deployment
wasm webapp create \
  --domain myapp.example.com \
  --source [e-mail]:user/my-nextjs-app.git \
  --type nextjs \
  --port 3000

# Short version
wasm wp create -d myapp.example.com -s [e-mail]:user/app.git -t nextjs -p 3000

Interactive Mode

For a guided experience, simply run:
