How to upload a static front-end application on Agency plan

Updated 3 weeks ago

Hostinger Agency Hosting lets you upload a static front-end application — a web application made up of pre-built files served directly to users without server-side processing or a database — on all Agency plans.

The supported frameworks are Vite, Vue CLI, Parcel, and React (via Vite)

Getting started

Step 1 – Add a new website

Click the Create website button in your hosting panel.

Step 2 – Select static front-end application

From the website type options, choose Static front-end application.

Step 3 – Choose your domain

Step 4 – Upload your source files

Click the file uploader and select your source files archive. Make sure your archive includes:

  • All source code files
  • package.json with your dependencies
  • .env file (if your application uses environment variables)

Step 5 – Complete setup

Click Finish to complete the setup. Your application will be automatically prepared and made available on your domain.

Once your static front-end application is uploaded, it builds and deploys automatically to your domain.
