Setup hosting on a VPS

Deploy your full-stack or backend project on a VPS (e.g. DigitalOcean, Linode, AWS EC2).

Server: Create a Linux VPS (Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is a good choice). SSH in: ssh root@your-server-ip.
Stack: Install Node.js (e.g. via nvm), Python, or Java as required. Install MySQL/PostgreSQL and Nginx (or Apache). Use apt update && apt install ... as needed.
App: Clone the repo or upload code. Install dependencies (pnpm install / pip install -r requirements.txt), set .env, run migrations, and start the app (PM2 for Node, gunicorn/systemd for Python).
Nginx: Configure a server block to proxy to your app (e.g. proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3000). Enable SSL with Let's Encrypt (certbot).

Restrict SSH (key-only, disable root login), keep the OS and stack updated, and use a process manager (PM2, systemd) so the app restarts on reboot.
