Learn how to deploy and host Next.js applications using Coolify on a VPS for optimal performance and cost-effectiveness. Explore the fundamentals of server hosting by understanding what a VPS (Virtual Private Server) is and how it compares to traditional hosting solutions. Set up a Hostinger VPS from scratch and install Coolify, an open-source deployment platform that simplifies the hosting process. Walk through the complete Coolify configuration process, including connecting your GitHub repository, configuring build settings, and establishing deployment pipelines. Configure a custom domain name for your application and implement automatic redeployment functionality that triggers whenever you push changes to your GitHub repository. Compare the benefits of using Coolify versus manually Dockerizing applications, demonstrating why this approach provides superior hosting capabilities for Next.js projects while maintaining full control over your deployment environment.
