Deploy and Host LittleLink Server on Railway

LittleLink-Server is a lightweight, self-hostable alternative to services like Linktree. It lets you create a single page with all your important links. Built with NodeJS and React, it's designed to be easily deployed as a Docker container and customized entirely through simple environment variables.

About Hosting LittleLink Server

Hosting LittleLink Server is straightforward due to its containerized nature. It's packaged as a Docker image, allowing for deployment on any platform that supports containers. Configuration is managed entirely through environment variables—no code editing required. You simply set variables for your name, avatar, social links, analytics IDs, and theme choice. This makes it ideal for modern hosting platforms like Railway, where you can set these variables in a simple UI and have the service build and deploy the container automatically, abstracting away server management.
