Repository-based deployments
Import a supported Git repository and configure the build command, output, and project settings for your application.
Take your frontend from code to the web.
Vercel is a deployment platform for frontend projects and web applications, with workflows that connect deployments to your source-control repository.
TOOL PROFILE
Vercel
Deployment & hostingVercel connects a web project to a deployment pipeline. After you import a repository and configure its build, changes can produce preview deployments for review; selected production changes publish the live site. Project settings and environment variables are managed separately from the source files.
01
What it helps you do
The practical parts of Vercel you are most likely to use.
Preview URLs
Review a deployable version of a proposed change using a shareable preview before promoting work to production.
Environment configuration
Set environment-specific variables in project settings rather than committing secrets or deployment-only values to source control.
Build and release history
Inspect deployment status and build output to track releases and diagnose common build failures.
02
A practical way to start
Follow a small workflow to get value from the tool without over-configuring it.
- Push the project to Git Make sure the repository includes the application source and its package or build configuration.
- Import and configure Choose the repository, confirm the detected framework and build settings, then add required environment variables in the project settings.
- Deploy and verify Run a deployment, open the generated URL, and check key pages and flows before using the production deployment.
