Move Your v0 Website or Web App to Your Own Hosting

Review the Project for External Deployment

Ask v0 to identify anything the project depends on before moving the production version to another host.

External Deployment Review

Identifies the framework, package manager, build and start commands, output directory, runtime version, production environment variables, server-side functionality, external services and any Vercel-specific dependencies, then runs the production build and returns a short external-deployment checklist.

Review this project specifically for production deployment outside the default v0/Vercel hosting environment. Identify: - the framework and project type - the package manager - the production build command - the start command if required - the build output directory - the required Node.js/runtime version - every environment variable required in production — names only - any server-side functionality, API routes, Server Actions, middleware, or other runtime requirements - any authentication, database, storage, payment, email, AI, or external services - any Vercel-specific packages, services, integrations, configuration, or features - anything that needs the final production domain, such as redirect URLs, allowed origins, CORS settings, or webhooks Check that private secrets are not exposed in client-side code. Run the production build and identify anything that could prevent this project from running on a standard compatible Node.js host. Fix only genuine deployment blockers. Do not redesign the project, deploy it, or make unrelated changes. Give me a short external-deployment checklist when finished.

Open v0

Keep the checklist for the deployment steps.

v0 allows its code to be exported and deployed elsewhere, but projects can depend on platform-specific services, so checking those dependencies first is important.

Connect the Project to GitHub

Open the Git section in v0 and connect your GitHub account.

Connect your GitHub account Create a repository for the project Confirm the latest code is available on GitHub

v0 works on separate Git branches while you make changes. When the version is ready for production, merge the finished changes into the branch you want Hostinger to deploy, usually main.

You'll use this repository for the first deployment and future updates.

Get Hostinger Web App Hosting

This tutorial uses Hostinger to run the production version of your v0 website or web app.

Get Hostinger Web App Hosting

Deploy your v0 project from GitHub and keep future updates connected.

Create the Web App Deployment

Once your hosting is ready, go to:

Websites Add Website Deploy Web App

Choose GitHub as the source, then connect the GitHub account that contains your v0 repository.

Hostinger currently supports deploying v0 projects through GitHub, ZIP upload, or an AI coding assistant.

Review the Detected Settings and Deploy

Select the repository and production branch from Step 2, then review the detected:

Framework

Node.js/runtime version

Build command

Start command if required

Output directory

Add the production environment variables identified in Step 1.

IMPORTANT

If the project depends on a Vercel-specific service, configure a compatible replacement or external service before deploying.

Then deploy the project to a temporary live URL.

Test the Live Version

Open the temporary live URL and check:

Main pages and routes

Server-side features

Authentication

Forms

Database features

APIs

Payments if used

AI features if used

Images and assets

IMPORTANT

Fix any production configuration problems before connecting your real domain.

Connect Your Production Domain

Once the temporary deployment works correctly, connect your production domain in Hostinger, then verify:

The domain opens the correct website or web app

HTTPS is active

Important pages and features work

Authentication works

Server-side functionality works

Database and external services remain connected

Redirect URLs and allowed origins use the production domain where required

No private secrets are exposed in client-side code

IMPORTANT

Anything that stores a URL — redirect URLs, allowed origins, CORS settings and webhooks — has to point at the production domain before it works on the real address.

Your v0 project is now running on your own hosting.

Continue building normally in v0. When a change is ready, merge the completed v0 branch into the GitHub branch connected to Hostinger.

Your workflow becomes v0 → GitHub → Hostinger.

Hostinger can then build and redeploy the updated project from GitHub automatically. v0's current Git integration intentionally keeps generated changes on separate branches until you merge them.
