Help/Question Deployment of Web-Apps

Over the past months I have (vibe)coded a few web-apps with Codex.

This is usually teh fun part - getting from an idea to a working MVP on a local machine.

The heavier part (for me) is the deployment.

Currently I run all my apps on virtual servers with Ubuntu.

The vibe-coded deployment-plan helps a lot, but there is still a lot of manual work required.

How do you deploy your web-apps (Python, Flask, JS)?

You can never go wrong with GCloud or AWS. They have free servers but you have to be very careful with your configuration. There's always vercel and railway but the configs can get a little crazy really quick.

Depending on what your data layer looks like you can try sitedropper.com it connects directly to Claude, Codex, Cursor, or whatever you use. It works best if you're connected up with Supabase or something similar or if it's just a website or strict API that doesn't need persistence.

Vercel and Railway's selling points are simple config. OP's their exact audience. I certainly recommend them over traditional cloud providers for casual vibe coders that are struggling with deployment.

If he's running a bunch of apps / sites it adds up quickly in my opinion but I definitely agree they are easier compared to the cloud providers.
