👋 Welcome to the Stackhero documentation!

Stackhero offers a ready-to-use PHP cloud solution with a range of advantages:

• Deploy your PHP application to production in just a few seconds with a simple git push.
• Use your own domain, with automatic HTTPS certificate configuration for enhanced security—no manual steps required.

To ensure your application remains reliable and secure, it is advisable to protect your production and staging branches against direct pushes. For example, you could require that changes are made via pull requests, with the staging branch reviewed and merged only by those authorised to deploy. Once your changes have been validated in staging, authorised users can merge them into the production branch.

This approach ensures that only validated code reaches production, while new features can be tested in staging before going live, providing you and your team with extra peace of mind.
