VercelFirst met in aicp-c3-basecamp-02 · Backend, hosting & code
Push a repo, get a live URL — the course's default free hosting for anything front-end.
You need a shareable link today and the app is a web front end; it's the free recommendation throughout.
Deploys straight from a GitHub repo with no configuration
Free tier good enough for client demos and learner projects
Part of the course's 'serious' stack: Claude Code + Supabase + Vercel
Hosts web apps deployed from a Git repository
Gives every deploy a shareable URL — the trainer's agency uses these for client feedback loops
Doesn't provide a database or auth — that's Supabase's half
The publish step of the local stack, once an app has outgrown its vibe-coding platform's hosting.
Backend, hosting & code
The KB is static files opened locally; no hosting decision made yet.
The obvious answer if the course site should ever be reachable from a phone — it's already a static build, which is the easiest possible deploy.
current
github: deploys from the repo
supabase: the back end to Vercel's front
railway: the other host the agency uses
