The prompt

Walk me through deploying my app to a cloud server for the first time, step by step. App: [language and framework, e.g. Node.js with Express / Django / Next.js] Database: [e.g. PostgreSQL, none] Where: [e.g. a Linux VPS from any provider / AWS EC2 / Render / Railway] Domain: [yes, I own one / not yet] My experience: [beginner with Linux / comfortable] Give me: 1. A short overview of the path: server, runtime, process manager or container, web server, HTTPS. 2. Numbered commands to run, each with one line saying what it does. Use placeholders like [YOUR_DOMAIN]; never ask me to paste secrets into chat. 3. How to store environment variables and secrets safely on the server. 4. Firewall basics: which ports to open and why. 5. How to set up free HTTPS and auto-renewal. 6. How to deploy updates later, and how to roll back. 7. A checklist to confirm it's working, including restarting the server and checking the app comes back. If any step depends on my provider, say so instead of guessing.
