Hello!
I built a web app using Stipple, and I’m hoping to get deployment advice.
**Web App Background:**
I’m making a web app where owners of pet rabbits can input their rabbit’s details (e.g., weight, age, breed) and food intake (i.e. vegetables, fruit, fortified food). The output is a nutritional analysis (e.g., total calcium in mg) with errors if upper limits are surpassed. Here’s a screenshot of part of the web app sans the nutritional analysis at the bottom of the page:
This is a personal project, meant to help pet rabbit owners make healthier choices for their pets. There’s more I want the web app to do, but I won’t get into the details here.
**Web App Deployment:**
I registered a domain name with Google Domains and plan to use Google Cloud for web hosting. However, there are many ways to host dynamic websites through Google Cloud (e.g., App Engine). _I’m wondering if anyone has deployed a Stipple App through Google Cloud and might have tips or a how-to guide?_ This is my first web app.
I’ll add that as a personal project (i.e. not funded by any organization), I’d like to keep the project costs on Google Cloud relatively low.
Thanks!
P.S. - It is very late here, and I apologize for any typos.

@astrowanders Did you manage to deploy it yet?

I do not know Stipple.
But I recently successfully deployed a Dash.jl app on Azure (making use of Docker). I don’t have time to put together a how-to, but if anyone wants to go the Azure path, I can try and answer specific questions. [Here](https://www.phillipsj.net/posts/deploying-dash-to-azure-app-service/) is a tutorial for Dash/Python on Azure (I think I followed this one). I think Azure does have some free quotas for webapps.
I will also cross reference this [thread](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/best-way-to-host-a-julia-webapp/55719)

Hi @essenciary!
Not yet. I ended up connecting my Google Domain to Digital Ocean. I have an Ubuntu 20.04 droplet and am hoping to deploy my Genie app with Nginx.

Hi @essenciary!
I’m following [Deploying Genie apps to server with Nginx](https://genieframework.github.io/Genie.jl/dev/tutorials/92--Deploying_Genie_Server_Apps_with_Nginx.html#Deploying-Genie-apps-to-server-with-Nginx).
When I try to launch the app as
```julia
./bin/server
```
I receive the following error, which traces to StippleUI.
I’m hoping that you might advise me on how to proceed?
Thank you!

Hi @essenciary,
I was able to deploy my web app: [https://somebunnysdiet.com](https://somebunnysdiet.com)
However, it doesn’t seem that any of the functions work although they work on my local computer. I thought this might be ameliorated by switching to HTTP as the transport layer
> transport = Genie.WebThreads
But this didn’t solve my issue? Is there something else I’m missing?
Thank you for your time!

@astrowanders Can’t figure out what’s wrong from the errors and warnings alone.
I suggest:
1/ check that you have the secrets.jl file? It seems to be missing.
2/ please pass me the Julia version (`julia> versioninfo()`) and the output of `pkg> st` (to see the versions of the packages used)
3/ maybe better to open an issue with these on Github so we don’t spam this forum
