This Servbase quickstart guide is for when you want the shortest possible setup path. Follow the five steps below to create an account, connect your source code, and trigger your first deployment. Use it as a reference any time you need to spin up a new application quickly.
1

Create or sign in to your account

Open the Servbase dashboard and complete sign-in.Your account becomes the owner of any applications you create and is the source of truth for billing, settings, and support.
2

Create a new application

In Applications, start a new app and choose one of the supported types:
  • Static / HTML
  • PHP
  • React
  • Python
  • Node.js / Express.js
  • Next.js
3

Connect source code

Choose one of the supported source methods:
  • GitHub — for repository-based deployment
  • ZIP archive — for packaged source code
  • Local folder — for direct folder upload
If you use GitHub, select the repository owner, repository, and production branch.
4

Configure the deployment

Set the following fields before you deploy:
  • App name
  • Base domain
  • Framework, if the app type requires one
  • Package manager for React apps, if needed
For Python apps, runtime entry and app root are controlled by Servbase rather than entered manually during creation.
5

Deploy

Trigger the deployment and wait for Servbase to process and complete the build.After a successful deploy, go to the application detail page to manage logs, domains, settings, and future deployment actions.

​
After the first deploy

Once your app is live, your next actions will typically be:
  • Add environment variables your app needs at runtime
  • Attach a custom domain to your application
  • Review deployment logs to confirm the build completed as expected
  • Enable runtime logs for Python apps if needed
  • Review billing and plan limits to make sure your app stays within capacity
You can find environment variables, custom domains, and log settings on the application detail page immediately after your first successful deploy.
