Deploy guide · runtime = "docker"

Ship Solid in ~2 minutes.

Solid.js is a JSX framework with fine-grained reactivity and no virtual DOM. The SPA on Vite ships on Percher the same way every other Vite SPA does — multi-stage Docker, Caddy-served static bundle.

Why Percher fits

Solid's compile-time reactivity means very small runtime bundles — the slim Caddy image plays into that on the serving side.
Standard `VITE_*` env-var auto-forwarding; no Solid-specific platform shims.

Quick start

bunx percher create my-app --template solid
cd my-app
bunx percher publish

The first command scaffolds a working Solid project plus a percher.toml. Publish builds and deploys it, then prints the live URL.

percher.toml

The canonical config for a Solid app on Percher. bunx percher init generates this automatically when it detects Solid in your project.

[app]
name = "my-app"
runtime = "docker"
framework = "solid"

[web]
port = 8080
health = "/"

Common gotchas

SolidStart (the fullstack framework) is a different shape — for the SSR variant, use the Node runtime instead. The Solid template here is the SPA variant.
Hot reload and prod build are separated cleanly in Vite; the deployed bundle won't include dev-only code paths.
