Deploy Overview
How to publish your VULK apps to a live URL with one click.
Deploy Overview
One-Click Deploy
Click Deploy (or Publish) in the editor top bar to deploy your app to a live URL. VULK handles the build, optimization, and hosting automatically.
What Happens When You Deploy
- Your project files are built and optimized for production
- Static assets are uploaded to Cloudflare's global CDN
- An SSL certificate is provisioned automatically
- Your app goes live at its URL
Deployment typically takes 15–60 seconds.
Your App URL
Every deployed app gets a URL on the vulk.host domain:
https://your-project-name.vulk.hostThis URL is permanent and stays online as long as your subscription is active.
Custom Domains
Connect your own domain instead of using a vulk.host subdomain. See Custom Domains.
Re-Deploying
Click Deploy again after making edits. Updates replace the previous version instantly — no downtime.
What Gets Deployed
| Component | Where | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Frontend (HTML, CSS, JS) | Cloudflare CDN | Minified and optimized |
| Static assets (images, fonts) | Cloudflare CDN | Global edge caching |
| Backend API | VULK API Engine | Already running from generation |
| Database | VULK PostgreSQL | Persistent, not affected by re-deploys |
Full-Stack Apps
For apps with a backend:
