Overview
/dev/push is an open source platform that builds and runs apps from a GitHub repository, presented as an alternative to Vercel and Render. Each push creates a deployment with its own URL, and branches map to environments such as production and staging. It covers build and start commands, encrypted environment variables, streamed build and runtime logs, custom domains with SSL, and rollbacks.
