Deployment help
You bring the app. We help you get it live — correctly, on your infrastructure, with handover docs so you can run it yourself afterwards.
What is included
- Deploy a new app (VPS, Docker, Vercel, Render — other hosts on request — ask in your email)
- Fix a broken deploy, failed build, or bad release
- Env / secrets audit, including env-doctor checks
- Domain + HTTPS setup and SSL renewal
- Docker / VPS setup, logs, backups, rollback (revert to previous working version)
- CI deploy wiring (automatic deploy on push)
- Migration between hosts
What is NOT included
- A hosted platform — we do not host or run your app on TECHDEV servers.
- Free human support for free tools — tool support is via GitHub Issues and docs.
- Access to your production secrets beyond what is needed for the job.
- SLA tiers or 24/7 on-call — not offered yet.
Who does the work
Work is done by TECHDEV. You will know who you are working with before paid work starts.
What happens next
1. Email what you have
You don’t need to know code — describe your app in plain words, we will ask the right questions. Tell us what your app does, where it should run, what is failing, repo link (optional), deadline, who owns the infra. Use the template on the contact page.
2. Scoped plan + fixed quote
You will get a scoped plan (agreed scope in writing) and a fixed quote in writing before any paid work starts. Work starts only after you approve.
3. Deploy + handover
We deploy together. You get handover docs: what changed, how to redeploy, how to roll back, what to watch.
How pricing works
Deployment help is quoted per job — it depends on what your app is built with (if you know), where it should run, and what is broken. You will get a scoped plan (agreed scope in writing) and a fixed quote in writing before any paid work starts. The open-source tools are always free.
No pricing page yet, because no fixed packages are set. When fixed packages exist, they will be published here with real prices.
Boundaries
- You own your infrastructure and accounts. We never ask for passwords or secret values by email — use placeholders in logs and messages.
- We access production only as needed for the job, and we document what was accessed and changed.
- Handover docs are included: what changed, how to redeploy, how to roll back.
- If it cannot be fixed, TECHDEV says so before billing further, with what was tried + next option.
Frequently asked
Do you host my app?
No. We deploy to your VPS, Docker, Vercel, Render, or another host on request — ask in your email.
Do free tools include free human help?
No. Free tools come with GitHub Issues and docs. Hands-on help is the paid service on this page.
What do I need to send first?
What your app does / what it is built with (if you know), target host, domain/HTTPS needs, current error or logs (redacted), deadline, and who owns the infra. You don’t need to know code.
