Deploying patebryant.com

Deploying this site was a fairly straight forward process as it only took roughly 30 minutes. Most of the time was spent waiting for the DNS to propagate. Using Vercel made it super easy.

Vercel

Steps

  1. Create a new project in Vercel connected to the github repo

    This will automatically deploy the site to a vercel domain
    You can also enter in your environment variables while doing this

  2. Add a custom domain

    I just pointed my GoDaddy A and CNAME records to the Vercel IP and domain

  3. Wait for the DNS to propagate

    This took about 30 minutes for me

It's really that simple.

When you create the project in Vercel, it will set up automatic deployments when you push to the main branch. Then the deployments take anywhere from 10 to 30 seconds to complete.
