Deploy Bolt.new

Deploy Bolt.new sites with VibeDeploy

Name: VibeDeploy
Brand: VibeDeploy

Bolt.new lets you scaffold full-stack apps from a prompt entirely in the browser. VibeDeploy turns the export into a real production site on your own domain, hosted in the EU.

Why VibeDeploy for Bolt.new

Bolt can publish your project itself, for free, at a *.bolt.host address. Your own domain is where that stops: Bolt offers custom domains only on its paid plans, and the site stays inside Bolt's hosting, run by StackBlitz, Inc., a company headquartered in the United States. Exporting the build puts the domain, the jurisdiction and the hosting bill back on your own terms.

rocket_launch

Production hosting, not a sandbox

The build runs on VibeDeploy's own Kubernetes cluster in Belgium instead of an in-browser WebContainer, so visitors reach a real server on your own domain, with SSL issued automatically.

deployed_code

SPA-ready, backend-capable

Bolt's default Vite + React + Tailwind output deploys without configuration. If the project has its own server or needs a database, that runs in a container next to the site.

shield_lock

EU-hosted by an EU company

Hosted in Belgium by Tnet Comm.V, with a DPA included on every paid plan. Site content does not pass through a US processor unless you opt into the AI builder features.

How to deploy a Bolt.new site

1
Build your app in Bolt.new
Iterate normally inside StackBlitz. Once it works in the preview, you're ready to ship.
2
Export the project
Open the project, click the project title in the top left of Bolt, then Export > Download. You get a ZIP containing the full source. Unzip it locally. Prefer Git? Connect the project to GitHub from the GitHub icon in the top right instead.
3
Build the production output
Most Bolt projects use Vite. Run npm install and npm run build to produce the dist folder.
```
npm install
npm run build
```
4
Sign up and create a site on VibeDeploy
The 14-day free trial needs no credit card and includes one site on your own domain, with SSL and versioned deploys. From the dashboard, create a site and upload the dist folder.
5
Point your domain at VibeDeploy
Add your domain in the dashboard, then set the TXT record it shows plus a CNAME (or an A record for the bare domain). SSL provisions automatically within about a minute, and the site also keeps its own vibedeploy.be subdomain.

Common questions about deploying Bolt.new

How do I export or download a Bolt.new project as a ZIP?expand_more

Open the project in Bolt.new, click the project title in the top left, then Export > Download, and save the ZIP containing the full source code. Unzip it on your computer. For the usual Vite project, run npm install and npm run build; the deployable site is then in the dist folder.

How do I put my Bolt.new export on a real domain?expand_more

Build the downloaded project, then upload its dist folder to VibeDeploy or push the source to GitHub and connect the repository for automatic redeploys. Add your domain in the dashboard, set the TXT record that proves you own it and point a CNAME (or, for the bare domain, an A record) to VibeDeploy. Let's Encrypt SSL is issued automatically on every plan.

Will Bolt's StackBlitz-specific dependencies work in production?expand_more

Yes for client-side code. Bolt mostly outputs Vite + React + Tailwind which builds to static assets. Anything that ran in WebContainer purely as a dev convenience (mock APIs, hot reload) is not in the production build.

Can I redeploy automatically when I edit in Bolt?expand_more

Yes. Bolt connects to a GitHub repository natively and syncs your commits automatically, so the download step drops out of the loop entirely. Connect that same repository to VibeDeploy and every commit Bolt pushes triggers a redeploy. Workflow: Bolt → GitHub → VibeDeploy redeploys.

What about server-side or API routes from Bolt?expand_more

Most Bolt projects are single-page apps that call services such as Supabase or OpenAI from the browser, and those work on VibeDeploy as they are. If the project has its own server, such as an Express API or a Next.js app with API routes, it can run in a container next to the site, deployed by your AI through the MCP tool deploy_app, with Postgres or Redis beside it if needed. Container data, such as a database volume, is not yet included in snapshots, so keep your own backups. Bolt Database, its server functions and its secrets are managed in Bolt Cloud and need their own move.

How does this compare to publishing from Bolt directly?expand_more

Bolt publishes for free to a *.bolt.host address and can also publish through Netlify. Bolt is run by StackBlitz, Inc., which is headquartered in the United States, and on Bolt's own hosting a custom domain needs a paid Bolt plan (Bolt's pricing page lists Pro at $25 a month). VibeDeploy is the EU alternative: hosting in Belgium, a custom domain and SSL on every plan including the trial, and flat pricing without bandwidth overage billing.

Can Claude Code take over a Bolt project?expand_more

Yes. Connect the Bolt project to GitHub or download it with Export > Download, open the folder in Claude Code and run /init so it writes a CLAUDE.md with the stack and build commands. Register VibeDeploy once with claude mcp add --transport http --scope user vibedeploy https://mcp.vibedeploy.be/mcp, sign in with /mcp, and Claude Code can build the project and deploy it to your own domain. Bolt Database, server functions and secrets stay in Bolt Cloud and move separately.
