How to Deploy Your Codebase Using Cosmic JS

Cosmic JS makes it easy to deploy your websites and applications to the web. You can deploy an app from any git repository to the Cosmic App Server from any Bucket. Cosmic JS uses Dokku (Docker + Heroku-like deployment) to deploy your app from any GitHub, BitBucket or any other public repo to its own subdomain.

With Cosmic JS alleviating your need for an installed CMS and server, your application stack can be boiled down to the following items:

1. GitHub Repo2. Cosmic JS CMS API3. Cosmic JS App Server
