How do I get my app live?
Hosting that fits how the app is built, its settings, a database, your domain and HTTPS. The order to do it in, and where projects usually get stuck.
My app works on my computer but not online. Why?
The server isn't your computer. One of five things differs: settings, addresses, the database, the port, or file names. Here's how to find which.
My deploy keeps failing. What do I do?
The build log names it. Usually a different Node version, a lockfile out of sync, a missing setting, or a warning the host treats as an error.
My site is a blank white page after deploying. Why?
The page loaded but the app inside it didn't start. Usually its files are fetched from the wrong path, a setting was blank at build, or routing isn't set up.
How do I get my app onto the App Store and Google Play?
Developer accounts in your name, a build that doesn't crash, a live backend, a privacy policy, and, for new Google Play accounts, 12 testers for 14 days first.
