What You Can Deploy
Pxxl supports every major runtime and deployment pattern. If your code runs on a server or outputs static files, Pxxl can host it.Web Apps
React, Vue, Svelte, Astro, Next.js, Nuxt, and any other frontend framework that produces a build output or runs a dev server.
APIs & Backends
Express, NestJS, FastAPI, Flask, Django, Go, Laravel, Spring Boot, Rails, ASP.NET Core, Actix, and more.
Databases
Provision managed PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MongoDB instances directly from the Pxxl dashboard — no external provider needed.
Static Sites
Plain HTML/CSS/JS projects, documentation sites, and any pre-built output you want served over a CDN with zero runtime cost.
Dashboard Overview
Every Pxxl project is managed through a centralised dashboard. The nine tabs give you full visibility and control over every aspect of your deployment.| Tab | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Overview | At-a-glance health summary: deployment status, uptime, recent activity, and resource usage for the selected project. |
| Projects | List and manage all your Pxxl projects. Create new projects, archive old ones, and switch between them. |
| Deploy | Configure and trigger a new deployment: choose a repository, set build commands, environment variables, and the target branch. |
| Deployments | Full history of every deployment run — status, commit SHA, build logs, and the option to roll back to any previous release. |
| Domains | Add custom domains, verify DNS ownership, and manage TLS certificates for your projects. |
| CDN | Configure edge caching rules, cache-control headers, and cache invalidation for static assets. |
| API Keys | Create scoped API keys for CI/CD pipelines, third-party integrations, and programmatic access to the Pxxl API. |
| Database | Provision, connect, and inspect managed database instances linked to your projects. |
| Cron Jobs | Schedule recurring tasks — define a cron expression and the command or HTTP endpoint Pxxl should trigger. |
Core Workflow
Pxxl walks every new project through six stages the first time you deploy. Subsequent deployments skip straight to the build phase.Repository Connection
Authorise Pxxl to access your GitHub account from Dashboard → Settings → GitHub. Select the repository and, if needed, set a Base Directory to scope the build context to a monorepo subdirectory.
Stack Verification
Pxxl inspects your repository for language lock files (
package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.mod, Gemfile, etc.) and pre-fills the install, build, and start commands. Review and override them on the Deploy form if the auto-detected values do not match your project.Initial Build
Pxxl clones your repository, runs the install command inside a clean container, executes the build command, and then starts your application with the start command. Build logs stream in real time on the Deployments tab.
Domain Routing
Once the container is healthy, Pxxl assigns a
yourproject.pxxl.pro subdomain and provisions a TLS certificate automatically. Add a custom domain from the Domains tab at any time.Data & Environment Setup
Set sensitive configuration — database URLs, API secrets, feature flags — as environment variables on the Deploy form. They are injected into your container at runtime and never exposed in build logs.
