Control panel
Combine filters →The control panel is how most of the web is still published: a one-click installer, a file manager, an update applied through a browser. It asks nothing of the person doing it and leaves no record of what was done, which is the trade — a site deployed this way cannot be rebuilt from a repository, because the repository is not where it lives.
95 providers deploy from a control panel, listed alphabetically. Mostly shared hosting, gpu cloud and virtual private servers, of 14 categories in all. 72 records do not record this field, and cannot appear here either way.
