If you already have a PHP application you wish to deploy, you just need to add the remote repository to your project (see Configure the remote repository). Then, push your changes with:

git push stackhero main

By default, Stackhero looks for your PHP code and static files in the www directory. For example, when someone visits yourdomain.com/myphoto.jpg, the file is served from www/myphoto.jpg. If your application uses a different public directory, you can update this setting in your PHP service configuration.
