# Claude Code + Hostwares: From Terminal to Live App
Claude Code helps developers build and modify applications directly from the terminal using natural-language instructions. But after the application is ready, it needs a hosting environment to become available online. With Hostwares Website Hosting, you can deploy a compatible Claude Code project, connect your GitHub repository, configure automatic deployments, add your custom domain, enable SSL, and manage future updates.
Step 1: Build Your App with Claude Code
Start by creating your application with Claude Code. Use the terminal to generate, edit, and improve your project. Test the application locally and make sure the main features are working correctly. When your project is ready, prepare it for deployment.
Step 2: Push Your Project to GitHub
A GitHub-based workflow makes future updates easier. Create a GitHub repository and push your Claude Code project to it. Make sure the repository contains the required project files and configuration needed to build and run your application.
Step 3: Choose Hostwares Website Hosting
Visit Hostwares and open the Website Hosting section. Select a hosting plan based on your application's requirements and expected usage. Click the option to get started or purchase the plan, create your Hostwares account or log in, and complete checkout.
Step 4: Open Your Hostwares Dashboard
After your hosting service is activated, log in to your Hostwares account. Open your Website Hosting service and go to the deployment section. This is where you can connect your project and prepare it for deployment.
Step 5: Connect GitHub and Deploy
Connect your GitHub account with Hostwares and select the repository containing your Claude Code application. Configure the required settings, such as:
- Repository and branch
- Build command
- Output directory
- Runtime settings
- Environment variables Once everything is configured, start the deployment. Hostwares will build and publish the compatible project according to your hosting configuration.
Step 6: Enable Automatic Updates
If your Hostwares deployment setup supports GitHub-based automatic deployments, connect the repository's deployment trigger or webhook as instructed. After that, when you push new changes from Claude Code to the connected GitHub branch, the deployment can automatically update your live application. Claude Code → GitHub → Hostwares → Automatic Deployment → Live App This can save time when you regularly update your application.
Step 7: Test Your Live Application
After deployment, open the preview or temporary URL provided by your hosting setup. Test your pages, buttons, forms, APIs, images, and other important features. Fix any build or configuration problems before connecting your main domain.
Step 8: Connect Your Custom Domain
Give your application a professional web address. From the Hostwares dashboard, add your custom domain and follow the DNS instructions provided for your hosting service. Update the required DNS records with your domain provider and wait for the changes to take effect.
Step 9: Enable SSL and Go Live
Enable SSL for your connected domain through the Hostwares hosting setup when available. Open your application using HTTPS and check that everything works correctly. Your Claude Code application is now ready for real users.
Step 10: Manage Future Updates
Once your application is live, managing updates becomes straightforward. Make changes using Claude Code, test them locally, and push the updated code to GitHub. If automatic deployment is enabled, the connected Hostwares deployment can publish the latest compatible version according to your configuration. You can continue using the Hostwares dashboard to manage your hosting and deployment settings.
