I needed to publish a simple web application composed of Angular frontend and Node backend on a server to make it accessible on the network. I was looking for a hosting service for this architecture, perhaps free, and I discovered https://www.render.com
Render.com is a fully-managed cloud platform, which can host sites, backend APIs, databases, cron jobs and all applications in one place.
Static site publishing is completely free on Render and includes the following:
- Continuous, automatic builds & deploys from GitHub and GitLab.
- Automatic SSL certificates through Let's Encrypt.
- Instant cache invalidation with a lightning fast, global CDN.
- Unlimited contributors.
- Unlimited custom domains.
- Automatic Brotli compression for faster sites.
- Native HTTP/2 support.
- Pull Request Previews.
- Automatic HTTP → HTTPS redirects.
- Custom URL redirects and rewrites.
If you have a github account, it is very convenient to release updates, as you can directly link a repository to render.com, and automate the deployment.
