# Cozy, a platform to make the personal server mainstream
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
One of the most common recommandation to protect your privacy on the web is to
|
||
|
|
host your services on your own hardware. Unfortunately, that practice is too
|
||
|
|
complex for most people. It looks like privacy protection is not a feature that
|
||
|
|
is motivating enough to jump into the self-hosting world.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
That's why Cozy is born. Cozy is a platform that allows anyone to manage his
|
||
|
|
own server as easily as a smartphone. Its architecture is original in two way:
|
||
|
|
First, it's built like a PaaS, so anyone can build its own web app for the
|
||
|
|
platform without learning a fancy SDK. Second, applications share the same
|
||
|
|
datastore that syncs easily with any device.
|
||
|
|
We believe that, by making the personal server easily manageable and by
|
||
|
|
providing advanced services that syncs well, we could solve the self-hosting
|
||
|
|
adoption problem and provide people with a better web experience.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
That talk will be the opportunity to explain better why we make Cozy,
|
||
|
|
to see in details how Cozy works under the hood and to show you a short demo of
|
||
|
|
the platform and its apps.
