No repository yet? When you add a website, set Source to Example project. Laravelify copies a small working app for the framework you picked into its own local git repository, then you deploy it like any other site.
Use it to:
- check that your server, PHP and Node versions, and tunnel work before you bring real code
- see how each framework is built and started
- start a new site from something that already runs
Finding a framework fast
The type picker has three tabs: Backend, Frontend, and Full-stack.
- Search looks across every framework at once (name, language, runtime).
- Pin a framework with the pin icon and it moves to the top of its tab. Pins are saved in your browser.
Domain or HTTP port
The Address field has two tabs. Choose Domain to serve the site on a domain (needed for a Cloudflare tunnel), or HTTP port to open it on the server at http://127.0.0.1:port. Leave the port empty and the next free one from 8081 is used.
What each example needs
All 14 examples deploy and answer over HTTP. When you bring your own project, the same points apply:
Backend and frontend as separate sites? Create each as its own website in the same group, and point the frontend at the API’s domain.
