AI coding tools have made it much easier to build applications without spending weeks writing everything manually. Devin is one of the tools developers can use to work on software projects with AI assistance.
But finishing the code is only one part of the job. Eventually, your application needs to run somewhere real.
If your Devin project is stored in GitHub, you can take that project and deploy it to a production server with Hostwares.
From Devin to GitHub
Once your application is ready, make sure the latest version of your project is pushed to GitHub. Your repository should contain the files required to build and start the application, such as your package configuration, source code, and deployment configuration. You should also keep secrets such as API keys and database passwords out of the repository.
Connect the Project to Hostwares
With Hostwares, you can deploy an application from a Git repository and configure the environment needed by the application.
Select your repository, configure the required build and start settings, and provide the necessary environment variables. Once the deployment starts, Hostwares handles the server-side deployment process.
Add Your Production Services
Many applications need more than the application server.
Depending on your project, you may need a database, custom domain, SSL, or other supporting services. These can be configured as part of your production environment.
Connect Your Domain
After your application is running, connect your custom domain and enable HTTPS.
Now your Devin-built application can be accessed through a proper production URL instead of a development environment.
Keep Updating
One of the biggest advantages of keeping the project in GitHub is that future changes can follow the same deployment workflow. Make changes with Devin, push them to GitHub, and deploy the updated version.
Your AI-assisted development workflow can therefore look like:
Devin → GitHub → Hostwares → Production
If you've already built your application with Devin, the next step doesn't have to be complicated.
Deploy your project with Hostwares and move from AI-assisted development to a live application.
