This Arabic-language tutorial presents Bolt.diy as an open source alternative to Bolt.new for a self-hosted coding assistant. The speaker walks through deployment on a Hostinger VPS, then explores the interface and model provider settings. The demonstrated setup uses cloud API keys; it does not demonstrate running a local LLM.
The deployment starts in Hostinger's VPS checkout, where the speaker selects Bolt.diy from the Docker application menu. For an existing VPS, he shows the operating system panel and acknowledges that the installation deletes the server's old data. He advises allowing about ten minutes for deployment, then opens Docker Manager to access the project and its terminal.
Inside Bolt.diy, the walkthrough covers account settings, cloud and local provider sections, and connections for project hosting and development services. The speaker adds an Anthropic API key and shows an existing OpenRouter configuration. The OpenRouter example encounters an API problem and does not display the expected model list.
He also asks Hostinger's Kodee assistant for help changing a domain and claims it can make server changes directly, though the walkthrough does not establish a completed domain change. Turning the installation into a SaaS requires source code changes, he explains, with some programming knowledge or help from a developer.
