deploy rails

rails apps get bundle install, asset precompile, and a real server.

the whole thing

curl -fsSL https://pushto.host/install | sh   # or: brew install mydude-industries/tap/pushto · npm i -g @pushto/cli
pushto login
pushto init my-rails
pushto

that last bare pushto is the deploy. on windows, the install line is irm https://pushto.host/install.ps1 | iex in powershell. live at https://<your-name>.pushto.host with https. we build it and run it as a server. you never touch the machinery. runs on the free tier too — your one free app can be a server; it naps after a quiet spell and wakes on the next visit. $13/mo lifts the one-project cap and keeps apps always awake.

how we know it's rails

  • gem "rails" in the Gemfile at the project root

what happens when you push

  • bundle install, then assets precompile, then rails server on port 8080

sharp edges

  • api-only apps are fine: a missing assets task is skipped, not fatal

deploying from an agent?

claude code and cursor can run all of this for you: connect your agent. the short machine-readable version of this site lives at https://pushto.host/llms.txt.

something off? run pushto doctor, or see all supported frameworks.
