Deployment in Vibecoding

This book gives you a clear, practical overview of how deployment works—meaning the moment your application moves from your own computer into an online place where other people can actually use it. You will learn the difference between a private preview, a shared test version, and a public live version, and why preview vs production matters when you want to ship changes safely. You will understand the three key building blocks of publishing: GitHub as the place where your project and its history are stored, a hosting provider as the place where the app runs on the internet (including a public URL, HTTPS, and often secrets), and a domain as the memorable address people type to reach your app. The book also helps you choose a hosting platform by explaining what different providers are designed for—static sites, frontend apps, backend services, databases, scheduled jobs, or full-stack projects—and when Replit deployment is enough (learning, prototypes, small demos) versus when a separate host is better (larger projects, business needs, EU data concerns, cost control). Finally, you get a go-live checklist, learn how to connect GitHub and a custom domain, why HTTPS builds trust, and how to update a live app carefully with previews, rollback thinking, monitoring, and troubleshooting common deployment failures.
