ZEIT Now Examples

This is the public list of examples for ZEIT Now.

All of these ready to deploy examples feature a frontend framework or static site, created with zero configuration using the CLI tools they provide.

The +functions examples feature an /api directory as well, highlighting how to use serverless functions on top of a framework, again with zero configuration required.

Deploying Examples

To get started using any of these examples as your own project, install Now and use either of the following commands in your terminal:

now init                    # Pick an example in the CLI
now init <example>          # Create a new project from a specific <example>
now init <example> <name>   # Create a new project from a specific <example> with a different folder <name>

Deploying your project takes seconds and can be done with just a single command:

now                         # Deploys the project with Now

With the now command, your project will be built and served by Now, providing you with a URL that can be shared immediately.

New Examples

We are continuously improving our examples based on best practices and feedback from the community. As a result, it is possible that example names will change and on occasion deprecated in favor of an improved implementation.

For example, the previous nodejs example showed a static frontend with a Node.js API. This is illustrated now in the svelte-functions example. Below is a table that lists some of the most popular previous examples and the equivalent replacement:

Previous Example	New Example
monorepo	gatsby-functions
nodejs	svelte-functions
nextjs-static	nextjs
vanilla-go	create-react-app-functions
typescript	gatsby-functions

Migrating and Upgrading

If you have an existing project you would like to deploy with ZEIT Now, we recommend reading our guide on migrating to Now and zero configuration. By combining the guide with this repository, you will quickly be able to understand how to deploy your application.

If you would like to upgrade a project to take advantage of zero configuration, you may find the upgrade guide useful. The upgrade guide covers how to remove configuration from existing projects along with how to use the /api directory.
