Deploy your app to a live address

When your app looks right in the preview, Deploy turns it into a live website with its own address.

Before you start

You need a PGBHub project to host it in, and permission to manage that project. If you do not have one yet, create it in the PGBHub console first. Your app runs as a container inside it.

Deploy

1. In the editor, choose Deploy in the top bar.
2. In Deploy your app, fill in PGBHub project (name or ID).
3. Choose a Container name. Use letters, numbers and dashes. It becomes part of your app's address.
4. Choose Deploy.

The dialog shows Building your app while it works. When it is finished it says Live and shows your app's address as a link. Open it to see the live site.

If it fails, the message reads "The deploy did not finish" and tells you to check your code for problems in the preview and try again. Fix what the Problems list shows, then choose Deploy again.

Update a live app

After editing, choose Deploy and then Deploy again. A redeploy reuses the same container and address. The project card on your home page shows a Live tag.

What gets built

Studio packages your files and builds them. If your project has its own build instructions it uses them. Otherwise it creates a standard static web server that serves your app and supports pages that handle their own routing.

Good to know

• Your account may limit how many deploys you can do per day and how many apps can be live. A clear message names the limit.
• Learn more about managing the container, its address and any custom domain in the PGBHub console guides.
• Deploys are a build, not a preview. Always test in the editor's Preview first.
