An example of how to deploy a static site built with Docusaurus on Kinsta App Hosting services.
Kinsta’s Application Hosting is a service to run your web apps and any databases side by side in a hassle-free environment, tailored for developer needs and ease of use. App Hosting is currently in an invite-only beta phase, sign up for a test account at kinsta.com/application-hosting.
During the deployment process Kinsta will automatically install dependencies defined in your package.json file.
Kinsta automatically sets the PORT environment variable. You should not define it yourself and you should not hard-code it into the application. The serve packageutilizes the port set by Kinsta automatically.
When deploying an application Kinsta will automatically create a web process with npm start as the entry point. Make sure to use this command to run your server.
Whenever a deployment is initiated (through creating an application or re-deploying due to an incoming commit) the npm build command is run, followed by the npm start command.
Docusaurus is a tool designed to make it easy for teams to publish documentation websites without having to worry about the infrastructure and design details. At its core, all a user has to provide are documentation files written in Markdown, customization of a provided home page written in React, and a few configuration modifications.
