Adds a **"I want my own hosted relay"** path to *Getting started* with a one-click Railway deploy button. Buzz today asks anyone who wants a real relay to take the build-from-source route. This gives non-developers a hosted option: the template provisions the relay plus Postgres, Redis, and media storage, runs migrations, and generates the owner identity on first boot — no configuration. The listing is flagged **community-maintained, not an official Block build**, so there's no implied ownership. Happy to adjust wording, placement, or drop the button and keep just a link if you'd prefer. Template deploys green end-to-end; the owner key is surfaced as a paste-ready `nsec1…` in the deploy logs, and one deployment can host multiple communities by hostname. _Note: this supersedes the stale #984 — that template modeled a since-removed Typesense service and didn't run migrations._ ### Checklist `README.md` only, +8 −0 — no source files touched, so the build/test items don't apply. - [x] `just ci` passes (fmt + clippy + unit tests + mobile) — n/a, no code changed - [x] Integration tests pass (`just test`) — n/a, no code changed - [x] New public APIs / tools / endpoints are documented — none added - [x] No new `unwrap()` in production code paths - [x] No new `unsafe` blocks ### How to verify Click the button in the rendered README. The template stands up the relay with Postgres, Redis and media storage wired, runs migrations, and prints the owner key once in the deploy logs.

Summary
Adds a first-party Railway deployment template under
deploy/railway/:railway.template.jsonmodels the current full Buzz stack as Railway services: Buzz, Postgres, Redis, Typesense, MinIO, and a MinIO bucket init job.README.mddocuments the template shape, the future deploy button, required owner pubkey input, generated secrets, and validation/backup caveats.Notes
This intentionally does not wire the repository README deploy section yet. That waits for the final README lane after the deployment primitives land.
End-to-end click-through validation is intentionally blocked until:
ghcr.io/block/buzz:<version>is publicly published.Verification
