# Deploy and Host WBO (Whiteboard Online) on Railway

**WBO (Whiteboard Online)** is an open-source, real-time collaborative whiteboard that allows multiple users to draw, sketch, and brainstorm together directly in the browser. It is lightweight, fast to deploy, and well suited for remote collaboration, teaching, and ad-hoc visual discussions.

## About Hosting WBO

Hosting WBO on Railway involves running a single Node.js-based web application that handles real-time collaboration over WebSockets. WBO does not require a database by default, making it simple to deploy with minimal infrastructure. This Railway template focuses on the core WBO experience without external dependencies. Optional persistence or authentication layers can be added later, but the base deployment runs as a single service with no required datastore.

## Common Use Cases

- Remote brainstorming and whiteboarding sessions  
- Online teaching, tutoring, and workshops  
- Lightweight collaborative sketching for teams  

## Dependencies for WBO Hosting

- WBO application (Node.js)

### Deployment Dependencies

- WBO GitHub repository: https://github.com/lovasoa/whitebophir  

### Implementation Details 

WBO runs as a single service and exposes a web interface immediately after deployment. No database configuration is required during setup. Additional features such as access control or persistence can be implemented by extending the base configuration.

## Why Deploy WBO 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 WBO 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.
