Codey is a managed Forgejo instance, provided by VSHN, a Swiss company based in Zürich. Every customer gets their own dedicated, isolated Forgejo instance hosted on European cloud infrastructure. VSHN handles updates, backups, monitoring, and security patches. Codey includes all Forgejo features. ### What is Forgejo? Forgejo is a lightweight software forge. It provides Git hosting, issue tracking, pull requests, code review, CI/CD via Forgejo Actions (compatible with GitHub Actions), package registries, Kanban boards, time tracking, and wikis. Forgejo is exclusively free software, licensed under GPLv3 and governed by the non-profit [Codeberg](https://codeberg.org/) e.V. organization. ### Why Forgejo? We believe in free software and simplicity. Forgejo is lightweight, resource-efficient, and packed with features that development teams need. Unlike proprietary platforms, every feature is available to every user - no enterprise paywall. Forgejo Actions is directly compatible with GitHub Actions workflows, making migration from GitHub straightforward. The project is governed by a democratic non-profit, ensuring long-term independence. ### Why choose Codey over GitHub or GitLab? GitHub and GitLab are proprietary platforms controlled by large corporations. Your code, issues, and CI/CD pipelines are subject to their pricing changes, terms of service, and data handling policies. Codey runs on Forgejo, which is 100% free software with no enterprise paywall. Your data stays in Europe on infrastructure you can trust, and you get full administrator control over your own dedicated instance. There is no vendor lock-in - you can export everything and self-host Forgejo at any time. ### Can I migrate from GitHub or GitLab to Codey? Yes. Forgejo has built-in migration tools that import repositories, issues, pull requests, labels, milestones, and releases from GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, Gogs, and other platforms. Forgejo Actions is directly compatible with GitHub Actions workflows, so your CI/CD pipelines work with minimal changes. Most teams are up and running within a day. ### Are there other plans available? Yes. In addition to Mini, Small, and Medium plans, we offer custom plans for organizations with specific requirements. Custom plans can include higher storage limits, more users, custom domain configuration, and additional features. Contact us for a personalized quote. ### What is the SLA of the service? Codey currently runs on a Best Effort service level. There is no guaranteed availability SLA at this time. VSHN operates the infrastructure with the same care as all its managed services, but uptime guarantees and defined response times are not part of the Codey offering yet. Contact us if you need an SLA for your Forgejo instance. ### How does payment work? Everything is billed by the hour, so your monthly cost depends on how many hours your instance runs that month. The listed plan prices include the base storage; additional storage is billed separately at approximately 0.37 CHF/EUR per GiB per month. Prices are the same in CHF and EUR (1:1). You start and stop your instance anytime with no commitment - there are no setup fees, no minimum term, and no notice period. You receive a monthly invoice that can be paid by bank transfer or credit card. Billing defaults to CHF; contact us to switch your invoices to EUR. ### Is Codey suitable for schools and universities? Yes. Codey works well for educational institutions where many students access the platform irregularly. The standard plans handle 100 or more users comfortably when concurrent access is low, so you do not need a plan sized for peak enrollment. CPU and RAM are adjustable if you outgrow a plan, and storage scales in self-service. Billing is by invoice with no minimum term, so you can align costs with the academic year. Forgejo's simple interface makes it accessible for students learning version control for the first time, while still supporting pull requests, issues, and CI/CD workflows for advanced courses. ### What is Servala and how do I sign up? [Servala](https://servala.com) is the Sovereign App Store - an open platform operated by VSHN that connects businesses with managed cloud-native services. Codey is one of the services offered through Servala, alongside managed PostgreSQL, Keycloak, Red Hat OpenShift, and others. To get started, register at [portal.servala.com](https://portal.servala.com), choose a Codey plan, and your dedicated Forgejo instance will be provisioned automatically. You can manage, scale, or stop your instance at any time through the Servala portal. ### Where does my instance run? All Codey instances currently run on Cloudscale, a Swiss cloud provider with data centers in Switzerland. We plan to offer additional European cloud providers such as Exoscale in the future, giving you a choice of where your data is hosted. ### Is a shared instance planned? No. Every Codey customer gets their own dedicated, isolated Forgejo instance. We deliberately chose this architecture for several reasons: better DDoS resilience (an attack on one customer does not affect others), full administrator control over your instance, no risk of another tenant accidentally or maliciously affecting your data, and the ability to customise settings per instance. Dedicated instances cost slightly more than shared hosting but provide significantly better security and reliability. If you prefer a shared instance, we recommend [Codeberg](https://codeberg.org/) - the community-run Forgejo platform operated by the same non-profit Codeberg e.V. that governs Forgejo itself. ### Is a CI/CD runner available? A managed CI/CD runner is not yet available as part of Codey. Forgejo Actions is built in and ready to use, but you would need to provide your own runner infrastructure for now. Contact us if you need a managed runner - we are working on making this available as an add-on. ### Can agencies use Codey for client projects? Yes. Agencies and development shops use Codey to host client code on dedicated Forgejo instances. Each client can get their own instance with full isolation, or you can manage multiple client projects on a single instance using Forgejo's organisations and access controls. VSHN handles infrastructure and operations so your team focuses on delivery. Billing is by invoice with no minimum term, making it easy to align costs with client engagements. ## Ask about Codey Have questions about Codey or need a custom plan?

For open source, GitHub's ecosystem effect is unmatched: the network of contributors, issues, and integrations creates real gravity. But for private repositories, where confidentiality, integrity, and availability matter to you and your customers, the playing field is much more level. This page compares Codey (Managed Forgejo) with GitHub, GitLab SaaS, and self-hosted Gitea across the factors that matter most to European engineering teams managing proprietary code. ## Quick comparison | | Codey (Managed Forgejo) | GitHub | GitLab SaaS | Gitea (self-hosted) | |---|---|---|---|---| | **Hosting model** | Managed, dedicated instance | SaaS, shared | SaaS, shared | Self-hosted, you operate | | **Data location** | EU (your cloud choice) | US (primarily) | US/EU (varies) | Your infrastructure | | **License** | MIT (Forgejo) | Proprietary | Open core (MIT CE) | MIT | | **CI/CD** | Forgejo Actions | GitHub Actions | GitLab CI/CD | Gitea Actions | | **Package registry** | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | | **Per-seat pricing** | No - from CHF/EUR 19/month per instance | $4/user (Team), $21/user (Enterprise) | $29/user (Premium), $99/user (Ultimate) | Free (ops costs apply) | | **Data sovereignty** | EU-hosted, Swiss-operated | US company, CLOUD Act | US company, CLOUD Act | Depends on your infra | | **Admin access** | Full root access to your instance | No | No | Full (self-managed) | ## Forgejo, Gitea, and Gogs - the lineage Understanding where Forgejo comes from helps explain why it is actively maintained and trusted for production use. **Gogs** was started in 2014 as a lightweight, self-hosted Git service written in Go. It gained wide adoption for its simplicity and low resource use. **Gitea** was created in 2016 as a community fork of Gogs after contributors felt that the Gogs project was not accepting enough outside contributions. Gitea introduced a more open governance model and accelerated development. **Forgejo** was created in 2022 as a fork of Gitea, driven by governance concerns after the Gitea project transferred trademark ownership to a private company without community consultation. Forgejo operates under [Codeberg e.V.](https://codeberg.org/), a German non-profit, with a fully open governance structure. Forgejo and Gitea remain closely related. Migration from Gitea to Forgejo is straightforward - Forgejo is API-compatible with Gitea, and existing Gitea repositories, users, and settings can be imported directly. This lineage demonstrates data sovereignty in practice: when a community disagrees with the direction of a project, they can (and successfully have) forked it and taken full control of their code and data. Your source code is never held hostage by a single vendor's governance decisions. ### What about Codeberg? If your project is open source, [Codeberg.org](https://codeberg.org/) offers free Forgejo hosting under the same non-profit (Codeberg e.V.) that stewards Forgejo development. It is a great home for community projects. For private repositories requiring a dedicated instance, SLA, chosen data location, and Swiss operations, that is what Codey provides. ## GitHub GitHub is the best-known code hosting platform, largely because of the open-source world. It hosts the majority of public repositories and has deep integrations with the wider developer tooling ecosystem. **Strengths:** GitHub Actions has a mature marketplace with thousands of reusable workflows. Integration with npm, the GitHub Container Registry, GitHub Pages, and GitHub Copilot creates a cohesive developer environment. Pull request tooling, code review workflows, and project management features are polished. For open-source projects, public repositories are free with generous CI minutes. **Limitations:** GitHub is owned by Microsoft, a US company subject to the CLOUD Act. US authorities can compel access to data stored on GitHub infrastructure regardless of which region it is hosted in. Since the Microsoft acquisition, GitHub has experienced increasing reliability issues. In April 2026, well-known open-source developer Mitchell Hashimoto [announced](https://mitchellh.com/writing/ghostty-leaving-github) that he and the Ghostty project would leave GitHub due to persistent quality problems. Per-seat pricing at $4/user (Team) and $21/user (Enterprise) scales with headcount. Teams with 20 or more developers quickly exceed the cost of a dedicated Forgejo instance. GitHub Enterprise Server starts at $250K/year, making it inaccessible for most organisations. There is no affordable self-hosted option. **When to choose GitHub:** - Your project is open-source and the community expects GitHub presence - Your team relies on extensive GitHub Actions marketplace integrations (Forgejo Actions is compatible with the workflow syntax, but the marketplace ecosystem is GitHub-exclusive) - US jurisdiction is acceptable for your organisation ## GitLab GitLab provides an integrated DevSecOps platform with source control, CI/CD, container registry, security scanning, and project management in one product. One of GitLab's key strengths is that the full platform is available self-hosted. See [gitlab.ch](https://www.gitlab.ch) for managed GitLab hosted in Europe. **Strengths:** GitLab CI/CD is mature and configurable, with native Kubernetes deployment targets and built-in security scanning (SAST, DAST, dependency scanning). The open-core Community Edition is MIT-licensed and self-hostable. GitLab has EU-based sales and support operations. For organisations that need a single DevSecOps platform with features beyond what Forgejo or Gitea offer (security scanning, compliance pipelines, advanced project management), GitLab covers a wide surface area. **Limitations:** GitLab SaaS (gitlab.com) is operated by a US company and does not offer the same data sovereignty as a self-hosted instance. Premium tier is $29/user/month and Ultimate is $99/user/month. These costs compound for larger engineering teams. Feature complexity can slow onboarding for teams that only need code hosting and basic CI. **When to choose GitLab:** - You need built-in DevSecOps features (security scanning, compliance tooling) not present in Forgejo or Gitea - You want the full platform self-hosted in Europe. See [gitlab.ch](https://www.gitlab.ch) for managed GitLab with Swiss operations ## Gitea (self-hosted) Gitea is a lightweight, MIT-licensed Git hosting application that you deploy and operate on your own infrastructure. **Strengths:** Gitea is free to use and runs on modest hardware - a small VM or a Raspberry Pi is sufficient for small teams. As the direct predecessor to Forgejo, it shares the same familiar UI and most API endpoints. Gitea Actions provides GitHub Actions-compatible CI/CD. Full admin access means you can configure every aspect of the deployment. **Limitations:** Self-hosting Gitea means you are responsible for backups, upgrades, availability, and security patching. A production deployment needs monitoring, tested restore procedures, and someone available when the host goes down. Gitea governance has been questioned since the trademark incident in 2022. Forgejo has since attracted more active community contributors. **When to choose Gitea (self-hosted):** - You have the operational capacity to manage the instance - Your infrastructure policy requires on-premises deployment - You want a migration path to Forgejo later (the two are compatible) ## Which option fits? **Choose Codey** if you want a dedicated Forgejo instance in the EU without the overhead of running it yourself. Fixed monthly pricing means costs do not grow with headcount. **Choose GitHub** if your project is open-source, your team relies on the GitHub Actions marketplace, and US jurisdiction is acceptable. **Choose GitLab** if you need integrated DevSecOps features (security scanning, compliance pipelines) not present in Forgejo. For a managed, EU-hosted GitLab instance, see [gitlab.ch](https://www.gitlab.ch). **Choose Gitea self-hosted** if you have dedicated ops capacity, need on-premises deployment, and want full control over every configuration detail. ## Next steps Ready to move your team to a dedicated, EU-hosted Forgejo instance?

Unlike GitHub (Microsoft), GitLab.com (US SaaS), or Bitbucket (Atlassian), every layer of Codey is Swiss-owned and operated: the application, the platform, the infrastructure, and the company behind it. When you use GitHub, GitLab.com, or Bitbucket, your source code, pull requests, CI/CD pipelines, and project management data sit on US-controlled infrastructure, governed by US law, and accessible under the [CLOUD Act](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CLOUD_Act) without Swiss judicial process. Codey delivers maximum sovereignty for code hosting because there is no foreign vendor in the stack. Forgejo itself is open source (MIT license), and VSHN AG is a Swiss company with Swiss shareholders. But sovereignty is more than ownership. The EU Cloud Sovereignty Framework defines eight dimensions that determine whether your provider is truly sovereign. ## Why Codey achieves maximum code hosting sovereignty Most "sovereign" code hosting options still depend on a foreign vendor somewhere in the stack: a US-owned platform, a US cloud provider, or a US parent company. Codey is different: - **Swiss-owned platform**: Codey is built and operated by VSHN AG, a Swiss company - **Open-source application**: Forgejo is MIT-licensed, community-governed, with no corporate parent - **Swiss infrastructure**: runs on Swiss data centers (cloudscale.ch, Exoscale) - **No foreign dependencies**: no US parent company, no US cloud provider, no proprietary components - **Full data portability**: standard Git repositories, exportable issues and projects ## Code hosting sovereignty compared | Dimension | GitHub (Microsoft) | GitLab.com SaaS | Bitbucket (Atlassian) | Codey by VSHN | |-----------|-------------------|-----------------|----------------------|--------------| | **Ownership** | Microsoft (USA) | GitLab Inc.
