When self-hosting Novu, you take full control over your communication infrastructure by deploying it on your own servers. While this setup allows for customization and greater flexibility, it is important to note that some features exclusive to Novu’s cloud-managed solution will not be available in a self-hosted environment.
Self-hosting Novu does not support social login (GitHub, Google, etc.). To access your account,
please use the email and password associated with your Novu account.
