App Platform

Git-based deploys of any repo — Next.js, FastAPI, Go, or a raw Dockerfile — with auto-detected builds, zero-downtime rollouts, custom domains, and auto-deploy on push.

App Platform turns a GitHub repository into a running service. Point NevTan at a repo and branch from the dashboard, and it detects the framework, builds a container image, and rolls it out behind a public URL — with zero-downtime rollouts, custom domains, and auto-deploy on every git push.

If this is your first time deploying anything: right now your code only runs on your own computer. "Deploying" means putting a copy of it on a server that's always on, so it gets a real web address anyone can open — not just localhost. Normally that means renting a server, installing the right runtime, configuring a process manager, and setting up your own build pipeline. App Platform replaces all of that with one flow: connect the repo, click deploy, get a URL.

Words this page uses

Repo (repository) — your project's code, tracked by git and usually stored on GitHub. Branch — a named version of that code (most projects deploy from main). Framework — the tool your app is built with (Next.js, FastAPI, Django, Go…) — NevTan looks at your repo's files to guess this automatically. Container / container image — a self-contained, runnable package of your app plus everything it needs to run, built from your code. Zero-downtime rollout — the new version is fully built and checked before it replaces the old one, so visitors never hit a broken or half-started app in between.

Where to click

Two buttons open the exact same deploy wizard, so it doesn't matter which one you happen to see: + Deploy app on the main Dashboard, or + New project on this App Platform page. Nothing else needs setting up first — clicking either one takes you straight into the deploy flow. See Deploy from git for what happens on every screen after that.

What it does

Auto-detected builds — common frameworks (Next.js, FastAPI, Go, and more) are recognised and containerised automatically. Repos with a Dockerfile build exactly as written.
Zero-downtime rollouts — a new deployment is built and health-checked before traffic moves to it, so a bad build never takes your app down.
Custom domains — attach your own domain with DNS verification, or use the default *.nevtan.app subdomain.
Auto-deploy — enable a toggle so every push to your deploy branch ships automatically.
Live resizing — change the resource preset (CPU / RAM / storage) of a running project, or turn on auto-scaling.

Quickstart

1
Connect GitHub
Link your GitHub account so NevTan can read the repo and offer auto-deploy. See GitHub integration.
2
Deploy from the console
Pick a repo and branch. NevTan detects the framework, builds an image, and provisions the service.
3
Watch it go live
Watch live build logs and status right in the console, then open the default subdomain once it reports healthy.

App Platform console listing deployed projects — The App Platform console — every deployed project, its status, and quick actions in one place.

The App Platform page

The page opens with five live counts — Total, Running, Building, Failed, and Stopped — across every project you've deployed, so you can spot a problem before opening any single project.

Below that, the Deployed projects table lists each project with its name, tech stack, branch, live Status, and Created/Updated dates, plus quick Redeploy, Domain, and Details buttons right on the row — you don't have to open a project just to redeploy it or jump to its domain settings.

Note

A project running without a custom domain shows a "Please map a domain" note under its status as a nudge — it's informational, not an error, and your project is fully reachable at its default subdomain either way.
