Creating your first project

Start from a template or an empty repository — either way, you get Git hosting, databases, and builds ready to go.

Updated Aug 3, 2026Projects

Projects are the home for your code, its deployments, databases, and settings.

Start from a template

Choosing a template scaffolds a ready-to-run repository for that stack, so you can push and deploy immediately. This is the fastest way to try MonkeysCloud.

Start empty

An empty project gives you a blank Git repository. Push your existing code with git push — MonkeysCloud will detect your stack and set up builds automatically.

What you get with every project

  • A managed Git repository
  • Two free managed databases (MySQL and PostgreSQL, plus Redis)
  • Automatic stack detection and CI/CD
  • Environments for development, staging, and production
  • Uptime checks, alerts, and logs

Deleting a project

You can delete a project from its settings page. This removes the repository, databases, and deployments — make sure you have the data you need before you delete.
