# Deploy and Host `create-bun-stack` on Railway

`create-bun-stack` is a full-stack application starter powered by [Bun](https://bun.sh/), offering a batteries-included developer experience inspired by the Rails philosophy. It emphasizes local-first simplicity, modern JavaScript tooling, and zero-config developer workflows—shipping with TypeScript, SQLite, file-based routing, environment handling, and built-in auth.

## About Hosting `create-bun-stack`

Hosting `create-bun-stack` on Railway enables instant provisioning of the full stack—server, database, and environment—all from a single deploy. The stack is optimized for fast startup, local development parity, and deploys cleanly to Railway without needing Docker, external Redis, or Postgres. It supports SQLite in production using Railway’s persistent storage volumes or can be trivially adapted for Postgres with a single `.env` switch. Built with minimal moving parts, `create-bun-stack` abstracts infrastructure complexity so developers can ship fast with modern primitives.

## Common Use Cases

* Prototyping full-stack applications with modern tooling
* Shipping lightweight SaaS or internal tools with minimal infra
* Building local-first apps that degrade gracefully offline

## Dependencies for `create-bun-stack` Hosting

* Bun Runtime (v1.1+)

### Deployment Dependencies

* [Bun Installation Guide](https://bun.sh/docs/installation)
* [create-bun-stack GitHub](https://github.com/jasench/create-bun-stack)

### Implementation Details 

To persist SQLite across deploys on Railway, ensure the following volume is mounted in `railway.json`:

```json
{
  "mounts": [
    {
      "source": "sqlite-data",
      "destination": "/data"
    }
  ]
}
```

Then in `.env`:

```
DATABASE_PATH=/data/db.sqlite
```

Update your Bun config or `app/config.ts` to reflect this path.

## Why Deploy `create-bun-stack` on Railway?



Railway is a singular platform to deploy your infrastructure stack. Railway will host your infrastructure so you don't have to deal with configuration, while allowing you to vertically and horizontally scale it.

By deploying `create-bun-stack` on Railway, you are one step closer to supporting a complete full-stack application with minimal burden. Host your servers, databases, AI agents, and more on Railway.
