Ruby: Going further

This documentation is part of the Deploy with GitHub Actions guide. You can view the complete guide here: How to deploy your Ruby code using GitHub Actions.

👋 Welcome to the Stackhero documentation!

Stackhero provides a ready-to-use Ruby cloud solution that delivers numerous advantages, including:

  • Deploy your application in just a few seconds with a simple git push.
  • Use your own domain name and take advantage of automatic configuration of HTTPS certificates for enhanced security.
  • Benefit from automatic backups, one-click updates, and clear, transparent, and predictable pricing.
  • Enjoy optimal performance and enhanced security thanks to a private, dedicated VM.

Save time and make your life easier: it only takes 5 minutes to try Stackhero's Ruby cloud hosting solution!

To further secure your deployments, it is recommended to protect your production and staging branches. This means direct pushes are restricted, and changes must go through a pull request. Team members with the appropriate permissions can review and approve pull requests to staging, and once everything is validated, merge the changes into production in the same way.

By following this workflow, you increase security (only authorized users can deploy to staging and production) and reliability (all new features are tested in staging before reaching production). This helps ensure smooth deployments and a stable production environment.
