Deploy an Application

This tutorial walks you through deploying a ready-made application on CreateOS in just a few minutes.

There are no repositories to configure, no infrastructure decisions to manage. As soon as deployment finishes, your app is live at a unique, persistent, and shareable URL.

By the end of this guide, you'll have a running application you can immediately test, share, and build on.

Steps

Step 1: Access the Templates Section

1. Go to CreateOS Platform and sign in
2. Click "Templates" from the menu on the left

Step 2: Browse and Select a Template

1. You'll be brought to the templates marketplace
2. Filter templates by:
   • Category (AI/ML, Analytics, Authentication, etc.)
   • Compute Type (CPU/GPU)
   • User Type (Developer/Enterprise)
3. For this tutorial, try the free starter template "Task Manager" on the top left

Step 3: Select a Provider

A provider is the server where your application will be deployed.

Choose one of the following options:

• Auto Assign: Let CreateOS automatically select the best provider (recommended)
• Go with my preference: Select a specific server or cluster
• Custom: Configure custom server settings

Click "Continue" after making your selection.

Step 4: Configure Deployment Duration

In the final dialogue:

1. Select the duration you want your application to live for (in months)
2. Enter a promo code if you have one
3. Click "Deploy"

Step 5: Access Your Deployed Application

🎉 Your application has been deployed!

You will find it under the Deployments tab, where you can:

• View your live application URL
• Monitor deployment status
• Access the application dashboard

What's Next

Your application is now live.

In just a few steps, you've gone from selecting a template to deploying a real application with a persistent URL—without setting up servers, pipelines, or switching tools.
