Kinsta Application Hosting Setup
Dependency Management
Kinsta automatically installs dependencies defined in your package.json file during the deployment process.
Environment Variables
When deploying, add the Kinsta API key and your company's ID as environment variables using the following variable name:
REACT_APP_KINSTA_COMPANY_ID = 'YOUR_COMPANY_ID'
REACT_APP_KINSTA_API_KEY = 'YOUR_API_KEY'
Port
Kinsta automatically sets the PORT environment variable. You should not define it yourself, and you should not hard-code it into the application.
Start Command
When deploying an application, Kinsta automatically creates a web process based on the npm start in the package.json as the entry point.
Deployment Lifecycle
Whenever a deployment is initiated (through creating an application or re-deploying due to an incoming commit), the npm install and npm build commands are run.
