All of th Everything you see in the cloud version can potentially be self-hosted; however, we may not "prepackage" some services for various reasons. Some integrations (like GitHub) may require you to install a separate app in GitHub or work with Google to enable an API, and we do not have extensive documentation to describe every case.
