👋 Welcome to the Stackhero documentation!

Stackhero provides a ready-to-use Node.js cloud solution designed to help you move faster:

  • Deploy your application to production in seconds with a simple git push. No additional tools or manual configuration required.
  • Use your own domain and benefit from automatic HTTPS certificate setup, ensuring your application is secure without any extra steps.
  • Enjoy automatic backups, one-click updates, and clear, predictable pricing so you can focus on developing features while Stackhero manages the infrastructure.
  • Experience optimal performance and enhanced security thanks to a private, dedicated VM.

Save time and simplify your operations: it only takes a few minutes to try out Stackhero's Node.js cloud hosting solution!

If your application needs to use protocols other than HTTP, you can open additional TCP or UDP ports. This is done directly in the Stackhero dashboard by specifying the public entry port, the destination port on your Node.js service, and the protocol (TCP or UDP).
