I literally thought they are giving out backpacks so I was like WOW, then I realized it is a bunch of tools. Well, better than nothing, free server from DigitalOcean is pretty useful for me as a student to learn about deploying on an actual server instead of relying on 3rd party services like heroku.
- grayclhn 12y agoUm... better than backpacks, I'd say.
- paradite 12y agoi guess that is what differentiates a student from a working adult.
- penprog 12y agoA 100 dollars in credit in digital ocean is better than a backpack considering most backpacks cost >$100
- Dewie 12y agoI already have a backpack. The same one that I've had since I was more of a pupil than a student.
- aet 12y agoFree server? I thought it was $100 in credit. How far does $100 go?
- agilebyte 12y agoIf you run the cheapest one at $5/month then almost 2 years.

- winslow 12y agoIf you are using their $5/month plan than you get 20 months [1]. Obviously backups and other things will add a little to the cost but realistically easily a year of free server time. [1] - https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/ https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/
- ethnt 12y agoAbout 20 months of their $5/mo plan: https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/ https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/
