One Click Deployment & New Project Starter UX
We’ve made several user experience and onboarding improvements to new projects. After creating a new project you can start with several one-click example deployments including databases, docker images, cron jobs and template repositories from your chosen version control provider. This provides a successful blueprint for resource creation and healthy deployments in seconds.
You can still tinker and customise your deployment from the suggested configuration. We’ve made this possible by supporting a shareable link which will update any Northflank resource creation form. As we continue to improve and expand this capability you will be able to create your own Deploy to Northflank buttons.
If you prefer to just get started yourself without using our examples or templates, we’ve added links to the documentation so the experience is a breeze.
