Overview

This section covers production-oriented setup.

Use it if you need to:

• deploy the Convex backend
• deploy the web app to Vercel or another hosting provider
• configure auth and email
• prepare a production environment

Deployment Flow

1. Deploy the Convex backend — create a deployment, set environment variables, push functions and schema
2. Deploy the web app — build and deploy Next.js to your hosting provider with the correct environment variables
3. Deploy the docs site (optional) — static site, deploy anywhere
4. Verify — run through the production checklist
