• For most projects, Vercel preconfigures your project correctly.
• If you are using API keys or other sensitive information stored in a .env file, add the information in the Environment Variables section.

Deploy Your Project

• Vercel will clone your repository, install dependencies, build the project, and deploy it automatically.

View Your Deployment

• After deployment is complete, you’ll receive a URL to visit your live website.
• Vercel provides automatic updates: Every time you push changes to GitHub, your site will redeploy.
• When you create a pull request on Github, Vercel will automatcally create a preview deployment for that feature branch and post a link in the respective PR.

Deployment Protection

⚠️ If others cannot access your deployment, it may be because Deployment Protection is turned on. To disable it:
