Welcome to Fly Launch. Fly Launch works with a Dockerfile or scans and configures apps for most common languages and frameworks. To deploy your app on Fly.io for the first time:
  1. Install flyctl – the open-source Fly.io CLI.
  2. Create an account with fly auth signup or log in with fly auth login.
  3. Run fly launch from inside your project source directory to create, configure, and (for most apps) deploy a new application.
  4. If prompted, run fly deploy to deploy your new app (or to redeploy after changes!).
