The Pxxl dashboard is your single control plane for every application, database, domain, and automation running on Africa’s cloud deployment platform. From the moment you sign in, a top-level workspace switcher lets you move between teams and personal workspaces, while a persistent left-hand navigation gives you direct access to each major capability. Whether you are shipping your first project, debugging a failed deployment, or wiring up signed webhooks for a production pipeline, every action begins here.

Dashboard Tabs

The dashboard navigation exposes nine top-level areas. Use this table as a quick reference when you are looking for a specific feature.
TabPurpose
OverviewA high-level summary of workspace health, recent activity, and quick-access widgets for the most common tasks.
ProjectsBrowse every project in the workspace, open project detail tabs, inspect deployments, live logs, environment variables, domains, monitoring, and scaling controls.
DeployCreate a new project directly from a connected GitHub repository by selecting a repo, configuring build settings, and launching your first deployment.
DeploymentsA workspace-wide list of all build and deploy events across every project, with status, commit context, and timestamps.
DomainsRegister, search, and manage all domains in the workspace — including DNS records, subdomains, nameservers, SSL certificates, and proxy security controls.
CDNUpload and manage static assets and CDN spaces, review bandwidth usage, and configure edge delivery settings.
API KeysGenerate scoped API keys that authenticate backend services, automate deployments, upload CDN assets, and feed monitoring tools.
DatabaseProvision managed PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MongoDB databases, link them to projects, and copy connection credentials into environment variables.
Cron JobsSchedule recurring HTTP tasks against your app endpoints for nightly cleanup, report generation, or periodic sync jobs.

Core Workflow

The following six steps describe how most teams move from a fresh workspace to a running application on Pxxl.
1

Connect GitHub

Open Dashboard > Settings > GitHub and authorize Pxxl to access your repositories. This connection powers all repository imports and automatic deployments triggered by new commits.
2

Create a Project

Open Dashboard > Deploy (or Projects > Add New > Deploy from GitHub), choose a repository, configure the project domain, runtime port, branch, environment variables, and build settings, then click Deploy Project.
3

Attach a Domain

Open Dashboard > Domains to register or import a domain. Point its DNS to Pxxl nameservers or add the required records, then connect the domain to the project from the domain Settings tab or from Project > Domains.
4

Provision a Database

Open Dashboard > Database, create a PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MongoDB instance, then link it to your project from the project architecture view. Add the connection URL and credential variables under Project > Environment Variables and redeploy.
5

Monitor and Scale

Open the project and switch between Live Logs, Monitoring, and Infra & Scaling tabs to verify the deployment is healthy, review traffic metrics, and adjust CPU, memory, or scaling settings as your workload grows.
6

Automate with API Keys and Webhooks

Open Dashboard > API Keys to generate scoped tokens for CI/CD pipelines, CDN uploaders, and monitoring scripts. Open Dashboard > Settings > Webhooks to push signed deployment and lifecycle events to your backend systems.

Explore the Dashboard

Creating Projects

Deploy a project from a GitHub repository — configure build commands, environment variables, scaling, and advanced options before your first launch.

Managing Projects

Use the Projects page to inspect deployments, live logs, environment variables, domains, monitoring, and scaling controls for every project in the workspace.

Manage Domains

Configure DNS records, subdomains, nameservers, SSL certificates, and proxy security controls for all domains connected to your workspace.

Database

Provision managed PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MongoDB databases, link them to projects, and pass connection credentials through environment variables.
