Hosting for vibe-coded apps

If you build an app by directing a coding agent rather than writing the code, Stackap gives the agent a place to put it in production, though a few steps still need you, and being honest about them is the point of this page.

The situation

The experience of building this way is that the app appears quickly and then stalls at deployment. The agent writes working code, and then the conversation turns into a list of accounts to create and settings to find. Each item is small, and together they are where most first projects stop.

Stackap tries to shorten that list. It cannot make it empty, and a page that promised that would be setting you up to be surprised.

What Stackap gives you here

• One place that holds the repository, the build, the database, the files and the domain, so there are fewer accounts to create.
• Commands your agent can run itself, with logs it can read when something fails.
• A deploy that cannot break a working site, and one command to go back.
• Secrets taken from standard input, so an agent can set them without you pasting them into a chat.

How it looks in practice

You describe what you want, the agent builds it, and the agent runs the deploy commands. If the build fails, it reads the build log and fixes its own mistake. You are asked to do only what needs a person: approve going live, and create one DNS record when you attach a domain.

Three habits make this safer. Keep secrets out of the conversation: tell the agent to set them from standard input, and set the sensitive ones yourself. Ask the agent to show you the build log before it says a deploy worked. And keep the old version around until you have looked at the new one in a browser.

$ stackap deploy my-app
$ stackap logs my-app --source build
$ stackap rollback my-app      # if the new version looks wrong

Early-access fit

Early access is a less natural fit if you have never opened a terminal. Stackap expects you or your agent to run commands, and the DNS step is made at a registrar, not in a friendly form. If you can follow a hosting provider's setup guide, you can do it.

Early access is a less natural fit if your app has user accounts through a hosted sign-in service, since Stackap has none, or if you need to accept payments with strict compliance needs on day one.

Early-access scope

• Stackap is invite-only, so you cannot sign up tonight.
• You still need a terminal and a DNS record.
• The platform checks that an app is healthy, not that it is correct. An agent can deploy a broken but healthy app.
• There is no per-branch preview, so review the change before you push to production.
