# Pxxl: Africa-First Cloud Deployment for Developers

> Pxxl is an Africa-first cloud deployment platform. Ship web apps, APIs, and databases from GitHub to a live URL in seconds — no server config needed.

Pxxl is an Africa-first cloud deployment platform that takes your GitHub repository and turns it into a live, production-ready URL — no server configuration required. Whether you are shipping a React app, a FastAPI backend, a PostgreSQL database, or a custom domain, Pxxl handles the infrastructure so you can stay focused on writing code.

## How Deployment Works

From a GitHub push to a live URL, Pxxl walks your code through four straightforward stages.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Connect Your Repository">
    Link your GitHub account and select the repository you want to deploy.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure Your Build">
    Set your install, build, and start commands — or let Pxxl auto-detect them from your stack.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Deploy">
    Click **Deploy Project**. Pxxl pulls your code, runs the build pipeline, and starts your service in a container.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Go Live">
    Your project is immediately available at a `yourproject.pxxl.pro` subdomain. Point a custom domain whenever you are ready.
  </Step>
