While it is very convenient to have everything in a single application, we don't really need to host

00:07.560 --> 00:12.600
our application on lovable if we have connected our application to GitHub.

00:13.120 --> 00:17.440
We have already opened up the possibility for many other integrations.

00:17.440 --> 00:20.680
So let me briefly explain two other options.

00:20.680 --> 00:26.800
For example, we can simply deploy the application on a service called Vercel, and all we need to do

00:26.800 --> 00:29.200
is provide our repository.

00:29.480 --> 00:32.840
And a similar service is also Netlify.

00:33.240 --> 00:39.040
Now keep in mind that if you decide to host this somewhere else, Supabase is still something that's

00:39.040 --> 00:44.760
going to be needed because the frontend is going to be hosted on Netlify, Vercel, or in our case right

00:44.760 --> 00:45.800
now, lovable.

00:46.080 --> 00:49.560
But the backend is still going to sit with Supabase.

00:50.000 --> 00:53.120
Now, in case you're wondering like why would you do this?

00:53.120 --> 00:55.160
Let me show you just one example.

00:55.440 --> 00:56.880
You go here to settings.

00:57.880 --> 00:59.720
You're going to see here domains.

00:59.880 --> 01:03.600
So you have the possibility of using your own domain.

01:03.600 --> 01:05.640
Currently I have this login.

01:05.760 --> 01:09.360
But let's be honest if you want to use it for your business website.

01:09.360 --> 01:11.680
You don't want to have that lovable app.

01:11.720 --> 01:17.320
At the end, you may want to purchase a new domain or add your existing domain.

01:17.840 --> 01:22.680
For both of these options, you need a paid lovable subscription.

01:23.480 --> 01:30.280
So if you want to use your own domain and you already have access to the code because you have stored

01:30.280 --> 01:38.320
it in GitHub, then it really makes a lot of sense to use Vercel or Netlify to bring your own domain

01:38.640 --> 01:39.840
and to have it there.

01:39.840 --> 01:44.640
You can still make changes through loveable if needed, even through the free plan, if that's okay

01:44.640 --> 01:50.040
with you, if your key that your code is publicly available, or you can just continue making changes

01:50.040 --> 01:52.400
to your project through other tools.

01:52.680 --> 01:57.080
So I just want to explain that this is also a possibility.

01:57.120 --> 01:59.720
I wanted to show you that you can connect domains.

01:59.720 --> 02:00.880
You can add an existing domain.

02:00.880 --> 02:02.120
You can buy new domain.

02:02.360 --> 02:04.200
The process is relatively simple.

02:04.200 --> 02:08.320
I'm not going to go into this, but I'm going to post a lot of links as a resource to this lecture to

02:08.360 --> 02:09.160
help you out.

02:09.480 --> 02:11.920
Just so you know, there are a lot of options out there.

02:12.240 --> 02:14.240
It depends on you, what you want to explore.
