Getting started

Your first deployment

Push to deploy, watch the build, preview a branch and promote it to production.

Deploy to production

Push to the project's production branch:

git push origin main

Within seconds a deployment appears in Cloud under Deployments and on the project's page. It moves through:

Status
`building`	Installing dependencies and building. Open the deployment to follow the Build logs.
`deploying`	Publishing: creating the server function (Next.js) and the route to it.
`ready`	Serving. Production deployments take over the production hostname and custom domains.
`error`	The build or publishing failed. The build logs show why.

Later pushes that don't change anything the project builds from are recorded as skipped instead; see Skipped pushes.

When it's ready, Visit opens it. Every deployment has its own hostname, and production also has a stable one:

https://<project>-<id>-<org>.deployments.dev.gov.vin   this deployment
https://<project>-<org>.deployments.dev.gov.vin        production

Push any other branch:

git switch -c new-header
git push -u origin new-header

That builds a preview deployment with its own hostname, using the project's preview environment variables. Production doesn't change.

From a ready deployment's ⋯ menu:

Promote to production switches production (and custom domains) to it immediately, without rebuilding.
Roll back to this deployment does the same for an earlier production deployment.
Redeploy builds the same commit again as a new deployment.
