Deployments & CI/CD
How builds and deployments work
From a git push to a live app: build, deploy, health check, and rollback.
Custom pipelines with .monkeyscloud.yml
Want to change build commands, deploy strategy, or health checks? Add a .monkeyscloud.yml file.
Rolling, blue-green, and canary deploys
Choose how new versions are released: with zero downtime, instant rollback, or a gradual rollout.
Health checks, retries, and auto-rollback
MonkeysCloud verifies every deploy actually works — and reverts automatically if it doesn’t.
Build and deploy notifications
Get notified about builds and deploys in-app, on Slack, by email, or via your own webhooks.
Managing environments
Development, staging, and production — separate deploys, separate variables, one project.

Getting Started
What is MonkeysCloud?
One platform for Git hosting, managed databases, and deployments — so you can stop juggling five tools and five invoices.
Quickstart: Deploy your first app
Deploy your first app in about three minutes — create an account, create a project, push code, and watch it go live.
Supported stacks
MonkeysCloud auto-detects and builds for dozens of frameworks and runtimes — here’s the full list.
Creating an account & verifying your email
Sign up in seconds, verify your email, and create your first organization.
Plans, free tier, and billing
Every project starts free — understand what’s included and how billing works when you grow.
Git & Version Control
Pushing code over HTTPS and SSH
Clone and push your repository over HTTPS with a token, or SSH with your own key.
Managing SSH keys
Add your public key once and push to all your projects over SSH.
Branch protection & required reviewers
Protect important branches from direct pushes and require pull request reviews.
Working with pull requests
Propose changes, review diffs, discuss, and merge with merge, squash, or rebase.
Browsing code in the dashboard
Explore files, view commits and diffs, and find your way around a repository without leaving the dashboard.
Webhooks & push events
Notify your own services about repository events with signed webhooks.
Monitoring & Ops
Uptime checks, alerts, and metrics
Keep an eye on every app with automated checks, alerts, and logs.
Setting up uptime checks
Ping your app on a schedule and track its uptime over time.
Alert rules & notifications
Turn monitoring data into notifications — the moment something goes down, you know.
Viewing logs
Build logs and runtime logs, searchable from the dashboard.
