Deploy SvelteKit in minutes
With @sveltejs/adapter-node, SvelteKit builds to a plain Node server that Darmi Cloud runs in its own container behind automatic HTTPS — SSR, form actions and endpoints included.
How to deploy SvelteKit
Darmi Cloud has a dedicated Node.js / Express preset, so there is no configuration to write.
- 1
Sign in with GitHub
Open darmicloud.tech and sign in with GitHub (or Google). On first sign-in you grant read access so the deploy worker can clone your repositories.
- 2
Import your repository
Click New Project, pick your SvelteKit repository, and choose the branch to deploy — the default branch is preselected.
- 3
Select the Node.js / Express preset
Choose the Node.js / Express preset. The commands are prefilled (build: npm run build, start: node build) — adjust them only if your project differs.
- 4
Add environment variables
Add any environment variables your app needs (database URLs, API keys, secrets). Mark sensitive values as secrets — they are injected into the container and hidden in the UI afterwards.
- 5
Deploy and watch it go live
Click Deploy. Watch the live build and runtime logs, and your app goes live on an automatic HTTPS subdomain. Every push to your branch redeploys automatically.

Tips for SvelteKit on Darmi Cloud
- Install @sveltejs/adapter-node and set it in svelte.config.js — the default auto adapter can't know it's targeting a container.
- The built server reads PORT from the environment and defaults to 3000, matching the preset's port.
- Purely static SvelteKit site? Use adapter-static and the React / Vite preset instead to serve the build output via nginx.
SvelteKit deployment FAQ
Which SvelteKit adapter do I need?
Use @sveltejs/adapter-node. It outputs a standalone Node server in build/ that Darmi Cloud starts with node build.
Do SvelteKit form actions and server endpoints work?
Yes. The app runs as a persistent Node server, so SSR, +server.ts endpoints and form actions all work as in development.
Can I use my own custom domain?
Yes. Connect an existing domain or buy one inside Darmi Cloud. DNS is configured automatically and every domain gets free SSL via Let's Encrypt.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The Free plan deploys one project on an automatic HTTPS subdomain with auto-deploy on every push. Paid plans add custom domains, PR preview deployments and more projects.
