Production

This is a Next.js + TypeScript app. No Python, Docker, or PHP.

npm run build
npm start

src/server/personal.json is read only on the server and is gitignored.

cPanel / LiteSpeed

Shared hosting cannot reliably boot full Next.js under Passenger, and GitHub Actions cannot reach this host. After you push, deploy from this machine. Full notes: DEPLOY.md.

npm run deploy

That command:

1. Builds the static site
2. Uploads out/ to samimreza.me (does not keep the export .htaccess)
3. Restores the Passenger .htaccess so chat stays on Node
4. Uploads deploy/cpanel/startup.js and src/server/personal.json to samimreza-app

SFTP must already work with your SSH key (banglabo@ibdix.allserverdns.com). To upload files without rebuilding:

DEPLOY_SKIP_BUILD=1 npm run deploy
