The person
🧑🏻💻
Your personal access.
A person is an object within the fortrabbit dashboard that represents a human being. A person can actively manage things with the fortrabbit dashboard and access code and is free of charge.
Understand individual access
It's common in classical hosting to have one account shared with a group of developers. Don't do that here. An account on fortrabbit maps to a person in real life, not an entity. Learn more about account organization.
Developers and clients
There are two types of people with the fortrabbit dashboard. You can choose your type when signing up and change it later on. A client is non technical person only managing to billing. A developer is a person with tech skills managing hosting, and maybe also billing. See account types for more.
Code access
Developers can add their public SSH keys for direct private code access. See the SSH keys section for more.
Account settings
The account settings are part of the person and refer to your user registration at fortrabbit. By signing up you create a personal account. This is how you login and use the services.
GitHub app
To enable git deployment from GitHub, developers need to install the fortrabbit GitHub app with their personal GitHub account.
