Deploy with Docker

Deploy a Docker container
live in 2 minutes.

Have a Dockerfile or compose file? livemy.app builds and runs your container at a live, always-on URL — free SSL, a real database, and no AWS, ECS or Kubernetes to wrangle.

Deploy your container — free How it works

No credit card·Public repos·Free plan never sleeps

Why run your container on livemy.app

You have a container. Skip the cloud setup.

A Dockerfile is not a running service. Shipping it usually means a registry, a cluster and a load balancer. livemy.app builds from your Dockerfile or compose and runs it at one URL.

No ECS, K8s or registry

Skip the container registry, the cluster and the ingress. livemy.app builds your image and runs it with a live URL, no orchestration to manage.

Always-on URL + SSL

Get a live livemy.site URL with free SSL that never sleeps, instead of wiring up load balancers and certificates yourself.

Flat, not metered

Cloud container bills scale with compute, egress and add-ons. livemy.app is a free plan that never sleeps, flat from $10/mo as you grow.

How to deploy a Docker container

Three steps, about two minutes

Point livemy.app at a repo with a Dockerfile or compose file. It builds the image and runs it at a live URL.

1

Connect a Dockerfile

Connect a public repo with your Dockerfile or docker-compose.yml, or upload a .zip.

Dockerfile / compose → connect

2

Build the image

livemy.app builds your image and starts the container. No registry or cluster needed.

build image ✓ run ✓

3

Go live

Free SSL, a live URL, persistent storage and env vars. Redeploy in one click or over MCP.

✓ live → https://app.livemy.site

From the trenches

5 things that break containers in production

Taking a container from your laptop to a live host trips on the same handful of things. livemy.app handles each one by default.

01

Environment variables

Values that worked in the Lovable preview are not set in production. livemy.app gives you real, encrypted ENV management per deploy, with no hardcoding.

02

Leaked or missing API keys

Keys baked into client code get exposed; keys left behind stop calls cold. livemy.app stores secrets server-side and injects them at build, not in the bundle.

03

Database persistence

Preview data resets and there is nowhere durable to write. livemy.app attaches a persistent database so user data survives a redeploy.

04

Client-side routing 404s

Deep links and refreshes return 404 without a rewrite rule. livemy.app serves SPA fallbacks correctly so /dashboard loads on a hard refresh.

05

Build configuration drift

Node version, build command and output dir differ from the preview. livemy.app pins and detects them so production matches what you tested.

Docker deployment & hosting FAQ

Connect a public repo with your Dockerfile (or upload a .zip). livemy.app builds the image, runs the container, and gives you a live, always-on URL with free SSL — no registry, cluster or cloud console.

Yes. Point livemy.app at a docker-compose.yml and it builds and runs the services together, so multi-container apps work without you managing orchestration.

No. There is no cluster, ingress or load balancer to configure. livemy.app builds from your Dockerfile or compose and runs it with a stable URL.

No. livemy.app builds the image straight from your source, so there is no registry to set up or push to.

livemy.app starts free and never sleeps. Paid plans are flat from $10/mo, not metered by compute or egress. On a paid plan you can point a custom domain with automatic SSL.

Yes. Attach a persistent database, durable storage and real, encrypted environment variables, so stateful containers keep their data across redeploys.
