Deployment

To deploy a Gridsome site you need a static web host.

Git-based deploying

The best practice when working with Gridsome sites is to have your project hosted on a Git-service like GitHub and connect a deploy service that builds your site from a selected repository.

These services are great for Git-based deploying:

• Netlify

• AWS Amplify

• Vercel

• GitLab Pages

• GitHub Pages

• Surge.sh

• Azure Static Web Apps

Deploy from terminal

Many services let you deploy your static Gridsome site from the terminal. Here are some:

• Netlify

• Amazon S3

• Vercel

• Surge.sh

• Layer0

FTP deploying

To host your site on traditional hosting via FTP you need to manually build your project from the terminal.

• Run gridsome build in your project folder.
• This will generate a dist folder where your generated site is located.
• Upload the content of this folder to any FTP to get started.

Drag & drop deploying

Netlify Drop lets you deploy a website with simply drag & drop.

• Run gridsome build in your project folder.
• This will generate a dist folder where your generated site is located.
• Visit Netlify Drop and drop the dist folder there.
