Deploy to AWS with Flightcontrol

Flightcontrol enables any developer to deploy to AWS without being a wizard. It's extremely easy to use but lets you pop the hood and leverage the raw power of AWS when needed. It supports servers, static sites, and databases which makes it a perfect fit for hosting scalable Redwood apps.

Flightcontrol Deploy Setup​

  1. In your project, run the command yarn rw setup deploy flightcontrol
  2. Commit the changes and push to github
  3. If you don't have an account, sign up at app.flightcontrol.dev/signup
  4. Create a new project from the onboarding screen or project list
  5. Connect your Github account and select your repo
  6. Select "Config Type" as flightcontrol.json
  7. Click "Create Project" and complete any required steps like linking your AWS account.
  8. If using dbAuth, add the session secret key env variable in the Flightcontrol dashboard

NOTE: If you are using yarn v1, remove the installCommand's from flightcontrol.json

If you have any problems or questions, Flightcontrol is very responsive in their support Discord.
