Prerequisites

Before deploying your application, make sure you have:
A CodeRocket premium account
A project with at least one version
Owner access to the project
Deployment is only available for project owners. If you’re viewing someone else’s project, you won’t be able to manage deployments.

​
Step 1: Access the Deployment Tab

  1. Open your project in CodeRocket
  2. Look for the sidebar on the right side
  3. Click on the Deployment tab (rocket icon 🚀)
The deployment tab is located after the Integrations tab and before Settings.

​
Step 2: Select Your Version

1

Choose a Version

Use the Version to Deploy dropdown to select which version of your application to deploy.
  • Latest - The most recent version (selected by default)
  • Currently Deployed - The version currently in production (if applicable)
  • Any previous version number
2

Version Considerations

Consider these factors when selecting a version:
  • Is this version fully tested?
  • Does it have all the features you want to share?
  • Are there any known bugs in this version?
You can always change the deployed version later without losing your subdomain.

​
Step 3: Choose Your Subdomain

​
Subdomain Requirements

Your subdomain must follow these rules: 
✓ 3-63 characters long
✓ Lowercase letters only (a-z)
✓ Numbers allowed (0-9)
✓ Hyphens allowed (-)
✓ Must start with a letter or number
✓ Must end with a letter or number
✗ Cannot be a reserved keyword

​
Reserved Keywords

The following subdomains are reserved and cannot be used:
  • System: api, app, admin, www
  • Development: preview, webcontainer, staging, dev, test
  • Infrastructure: cdn, static, assets, media
  • Services: mail, smtp, ftp, webhook
Use descriptive names that represent your project, like portfolio, my-store, blog-demo, etc.

​
Check Availability

Before deploying, click the Check button to verify your subdomain is available: 
myapp.coderocket.app ✓ Available
popular-name.coderocket.app ✗ Already taken

​
Step 4: Deploy Your Application

1

Review Your Configuration

Double-check:
  • Selected version is correct
  • Subdomain is available and follows the rules
  • You have a premium subscription active
2

Click Deploy Application

Press the Deploy Application button. The deployment process takes a few seconds.
3

Wait for Confirmation

You’ll see a success message: “Your app is now live at [subdomain].coderocket.app”
4

Access Your Application

Click the link in the success message or the deployed badge next to your project title to open your live application in a new tab.

​
What Happens During Deployment

When you deploy your application:
  1. Validation - CodeRocket checks your subdomain availability and format
  2. Version Locking - The selected version is marked as deployed
  3. URL Configuration - Your custom subdomain is configured
  4. Instant Live - Your application becomes accessible immediately
No build process is required! Your application is ready instantly because it’s already built when you generate each version.

​
Verify Your Deployment

After deploying, verify everything works:
1

Test the URL

Open https://[your-subdomain].coderocket.app in a new browser tab
2

Check All Features

Navigate through your application to ensure all features work as expected
3

Test on Different Devices

If possible, check on mobile devices and different browsers
4

Share with Others

Send the URL to colleagues or friends to get feedback
