Your First Deployment

Use the Deploy page to select a repository, define build commands, and push artifacts to IPFS.

ALGOFLOW stores immutable deployment metadata so you can inspect every release in project history.

  • Project name becomes the deployment label/domain key.
  • Root directory controls where build commands run.
  • Output directory is uploaded and pinned to IPFS.
  • Deployment logs show build, upload, and chain status.
