How to Deploy a Next.js App

Direct answer

To deploy a Next.js app you need a production build, a process that serves it (or a platform that runs that process), HTTPS, and configuration via environment variables. On Runex, connect the GitHub repository and deploy to *.runex.cloud.

General checklist (any host)

1. Ensure next build succeeds locally
2. Decide how you run production (next start or your documented alternative)
3. Bind HTTP to 0.0.0.0 and respect PORT when the host provides it
4. Keep secrets in environment variables — never in Git
5. Put a custom domain behind HTTPS when you go public

Deploy Next.js with Runex

1. Push the app to GitHub
2. Sign up at runex.cloud and install the Runex GitHub App
3. Select repository and branch, then deploy
4. Open https://<deployment-slug>.runex.cloud
5. Optionally attach a custom domain — custom domains docs

Environment variables

Use the dashboard to set server secrets and any NEXT_PUBLIC_* values your app needs. See environment variables.

Common problems

• Build fails on missing dependencies — check lockfiles and Node version
• App starts but URL fails — port configuration
• Domain not resolving — custom domain troubleshooting

Open the Next.js deploy page or start from the deploy hub.
