Start here
Take your AI / vibe-coded project from localhost to a live, secure, discoverable website — step by step.
You vibe-coded an app and it runs great on your machine — but nobody else can reach it yet. These guides cover the "last mile": getting it onto the public internet for real.
Who this is for
Developers who just built a web project (a site, tool, or API) and need to deploy it publicly for the first time. You don't need to be a sysadmin.
The steps to going live
Walk these in order and your project will be live and solid:
① Publish to the internet
Pick the simplest path: static hosting, serverless, PaaS, or your own server.
② Buy a server
Figure out whether you even need a server, and how to choose a VPS / cloud host.
③ Cheap cloud servers
A budget-VPS buying guide, comparison table, and free tiers.
④ Buy a domain
Registrars, TLDs, renewal traps, and WHOIS privacy.
⑤ Set up Cloudflare
DNS, CDN, SSL, caching, and basic protection in one pass.
⑥ Ops security
SSH hardening, firewall, backups, and monitoring.
⑦ SEO
Help search engines and real users find you.
⑧ Templates & checklists
Copy-paste config templates and launch checklists.
Self-check first
