# Procodile 🐊 Running & deploying Ruby apps to places like [Viaduct](https://viaduct.io) & Heroku is really easy but running processes on actual servers is less fun. Procodile aims to take some the stress out of running your Ruby/Rails apps and give you some of the useful process management features you get from the takes of the PaaS providers. Procodile is a bit like [Foreman](https://github.com/ddollar/foreman) but things are designed to run in the background (as well as the foreground if you prefer) and there's a supervisor which keeps an eye on your processes and will respawn them if they die. Procodile works out of the box with your existing `Procfile`. * [Watch a quick screencast](https://vimeo.com/188041935) * [Read documentation](https://github.com/adamcooke/procodile/wiki) * [View on RubyGems](https://rubygems.org/gems/procodile) * [Check the CHANGELOG](https://github.com/adamcooke/procodile/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md) ![Screenshot](https://share.adam.ac/16/cAZRKUM7.png)
