# Free Remix hosting

EasyHost runs Remix, a full-stack React framework, in an always-on Node.js container for $0. No credit card is needed, and your agent can deploy it with one instruction.

## What you get

- An always-on container with 512 MB of RAM and 1 CPU
- A URL at `<app-slug>.easyhost.fun`, plus custom domains with HTTPS
- One Postgres 16 database and one S3 bucket per project
- Up to 3 apps and 5 schedules per project

## How Remix builds and runs

| Step | What EasyHost uses |
| --- | --- |
| Build | `remix vite:build`, through your package build script |
| Start | `scripts.start`, usually `remix-serve ./build/server/index.js` |
| Runtime env | `NODE_ENV=production`, `PORT=3000`, `HOST=0.0.0.0` |

Use the default `@remix-run/serve` server. It reads `PORT` and `HOST`.

```package.json
{
  "scripts": {
    "build": "remix vite:build",
    "start": "remix-serve ./build/server/index.js"
  }
}
```

## Deploy it

```
npx ezhst projects create my-project --link
npx ezhst apps create my-app
npx ezhst link --project <project-slug> --app <app-slug>
npx ezhst env import .env
npx ezhst deploy
```

## Limits and caveats

Remove platform adapters such as `@vercel/remix` so your loaders run on the plain Node.js runtime.

Apps run in one region, with no edge network, preview deployments or Git integration. One build runs at a time.
