yeah, why couldn't you?
like have a full website with a database too, I was just wondering because I've been trying to find websites like this but I couldn't but this one seems to be good.
yep you can run databases on railway too
and vp's are too expensive/too hard sometimes
okay thanks
what kind of website?
Node.js/Express.JS webserver, I'm not really sure. I just hired a dev to create the website, and he knows more, so I'm also waiting for a response from him to see if it works
oh so not a website, just an API?
no it is a website only that it requires that in order for it to work. Because I thought that railway was just a static web hosting provider
express isn't a web server though?
Yeah I know it's just a node framework, I meant node.js. Basically we were using a vps before, but due to the ip that it was running on the website didn't work. So I'm looking for a another provider
node js isn't a web server either, I think you will want to talk to your developer and make sure your website is being served with something like caddy
Hmm I see, yeah I will contact him and figure eveything out, thanks for your help
no problem! let me know if you need any more help!
