Deployment Workflow

Wappler General Need Help
1

First of all, I just want to thank the Wappler team for building such a kickass product, really leaps and bounds ahead from what is in the market.

Thanks to Wappler, I now have paying customers using my applications on a day-to-day basis - which is a tremendous feat in itself for someone not really knowing how to code to creating quite robust and live apps.

What I’m currently struggling with is the part of the workflow which is not often talked about i.e deployment, pushing new features to your app etc. in live environment.

What I mean is how to use Git in Wappler to work on different parts of code (I’m somehow not able to fully grasp it with the current documentation ), keeping test and prod code separate (it seems the editor is just common across all targets), how to deploy test code to production & going from one Wappler version to another without breaking things on live version!

Maybe it’s because I’m not a programmer, I’m struggling with this more.

Would anyone be available over a short Zoom call to help me understand how to approach this in the Wappler context? Or maybe point me to some useful resources on this topic.

A good topic of conversation. I’ll be interested to hear people’s thoughts on this.

Me too. It’s a real struggle. Would love to hear other’s thoughts.

With updating Wappler, I only do it every few months when a stable sounding version comes along with features I need.

I can’t get me head around git either. Would love a Wappler guru to run a live webinar on it.

Deployment has big challenges… I use AWS elastic beanstalk. There are Wappler issues like remembering to switch target, and turning off debug mode. My flow could be much better but I’ve not yet found the time to get into the deep technicalities of improving it.

You should start reading something like this and then go deeper once you find a git workflow that suits your needs.

Hi Antony,

I was wondering if you’ve found a better work flow or process to things. I am currently at the spot you were at the time of this post and was wondering if you’ve been able to develop a quality process.

Thanks!

that’s an almost 3 years old topic. A LOT has changed during these 3 years. If you have any specific questions about deployment, then post a separate topic explaining your issue in details.
