What you can build with WebThings Gateway
WebThings Gateway is an open-source implementation of the Web of Things specification, originally developed by Mozilla and now maintained by the WebThings community. It bridges smart home devices from different ecosystems into a single private dashboard, exposing each device as a Web Thing with a standard HTTP and WebSocket API.
Running WebThings Gateway on your own VPS keeps device data, automation rules, and add-on configuration entirely off vendor clouds. The gateway speaks MQTT and IP-based protocols out of the box, while Zigbee, Z-Wave, and Bluetooth add-ons remain available for users who pair the VPS with a remote bridge or compatible hardware.
Key features of WebThings Gateway
Web of Things API
Every connected device is exposed through a standard HTTP and WebSocket Web Things API for use in scripts, dashboards, and third-party apps.

Add-on ecosystem
Install adapters for MQTT, Philips Hue, TP-Link, IKEA Tradfri, virtual sensors, and dozens more from the built-in add-on directory.
Private by default
All device data, logs, and automations stay on your VPS with no vendor account, no telemetry, and no cloud relay required.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.

Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Kodee and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
