A focused reading collection for hosting & deployment.
Source collaboration and website delivery meet at release time, but they require different decisions. This category brings together articles on repository platforms, private servers, static publishing, and the infrastructure that serves a finished application. Use the collection to investigate a concrete choice, then visit the hosting hub for the wider relationship between Git hosting, build environments, and web delivery.
If you are choosing a remote, begin with GitHub, GitLab, or self-hosted Git and evaluate the review process alongside maintenance duties. If the repository already exists, move to the deployment guide that matches the output you need to publish. Read with a release inventory in hand: approved source revision, build inputs, generated files, credentials, serving environment, and recovery method. That inventory makes a provider comparison useful and keeps a successful push from being mistaken for evidence that the website is working.
Choose repository hosting around the work your team needs to complete. Compare managed services and self-hosted options, test the daily review process, and account for maintenance, migration, and recovery before committing.
Move from a repository to a reliable public website with a repeatable build, a reviewed artifact, purposeful preview checks, and a rollback plan that accounts for both HTML and cached assets.
Understand how a Git release reaches visitors through Nginx and a CDN. Set explicit routing and cache policies, keep private source outside the web root, and verify changes at the public edge.
A private Git server needs more than a working push command. Build a clear plan for repository access, SSH identities, backups, recovery, and day-to-day ownership before moving your team’s code.
