Standard. Fine on a small server; give it some headroom if the server is busy.
What happens after install?
Finish the setup wizard on first visit to create your administrator account.
Is Gitea backed up?
Yes. Apps are sites like any other, so they use the same backup schedules and your own storage bucket.
Who updates Gitea?
You do. Gitea keeps the version it was installed with; to move to a newer release, pull the new image on the server over SSH. The dashboard has no update button for apps.
Does Nuvlo charge per app?
No. You pay your Nuvlo plan and your cloud provider for the server, and Gitea itself is free to self-host.
