Deploy and Host LUDA on Railway

LUDA is a robust, full-stack psychoeducational web application built on the modern MERN stack. Designed to streamline administrative workflows, the system securely manages user authentication, dynamic mental health resources, and progress tracking, providing an intuitive experience for both administrators and end-users.

About Hosting LUDA

Hosting LUDA on Railway involves deploying a containerized Node.js and Express backend alongside a production-ready database instance. The deployment process automatically builds the application from the repository, provisions the network infrastructure, and exposes a secure public URL. By separating the environment variables, the platform ensures that database connection strings, security tokens, and API keys remain fully protected while enabling seamless, automated redeployments whenever the repository is updated.

Common Use Cases

Scalable Production Backend: Serving as the core API handler for the frontend interface hosted on Vercel.
Data-Driven Progress Tracking: Managing secure database records for user evaluations, activity logs, and system analytics.

Dependencies for LUDA Hosting

Node.js Environment: The core runtime required to execute the Express backend and manage server-side logic.
Database Instance: A structured data store required to persist user credentials, clinical settings, and application states.
