Josef Strzibny is a Czech software engineer and the author of Deployment from Scratch and the Kamal Handbook — both deep dives into the operational side of running web applications without depending on a managed PaaS. His material is opinionated about understanding the Linux server underneath your application rather than treating it as a black box.
His CourseFlix listing carries two Josef Strzibny courses: Deployment from Scratch (a comprehensive guide to deploying Ruby, Python, and other web apps to a vanilla Linux VPS) and the Kamal Handbook (a deep dive into the deployment tool 37signals released alongside Rails 7). Material is paid and aimed at developers who want operational competence with their own services.
