FEATURES

A whole local stack, in one binary

Everything the app does — no containers, no config, no lock-in.

No Docker

Bundled static PHP & MySQL binaries. Everything lives under ~/.siteshift — no Docker Desktop, no daemons.

Push & pull over SSH

Deploy files and database to any host over SSH/SFTP, with a file-by-file review before the push. Fully host-agnostic — bring your own server.

Hosting integrations

Hostinger lists and creates your websites through its API; TransIP and DigitalOcean list your servers; SiteGround and Hostnet come with guided SSH set-up.

Hostinger TransIP SiteGround Hostnet DigitalOcean

Multiple PHP versions

Run PHP 8.2, 8.3, 8.4 or 8.5 per site. Switch runtimes without touching your system PHP.

One-click WP admin

One-time login links via the SiteShift mu-plugin. No more lost or reset admin passwords.

Live task progress

Watch installs, provisions and syncs stream in real time — every step logged to the local event log.

HOW IT WORKS

From download to deployed

Three steps. About a minute to your first live site.

1

Download one app

No installers, no dependencies, no Docker Desktop. Open it and SiteShift fetches its PHP and MySQL binaries on first run.

2

Create a site

Name it, pick a PHP version. WordPress is downloaded, a database provisioned, and the site served at its own .localhost address in about a minute.

3

Connect your host and push

Add SSH details or a hosting account, review the file diff, and push files + database over the wire.
