01 Git push → production, in minutes
At every git push to the configured branch, Clever Cloud:
- Automatically detects the Node.js version and package manager (npm, yarn, pnpm)
- Installs dependencies (npm ci or yarn install)
- Runs the build script (npm run build) if present
- Starts the application with zero downtime
- Configures auto-scaling based on load
No PM2, no Nginx, no SSL certificates to manage. Everything is included and automatically maintained by the platform. Natively supported frameworks:- Express.js — REST APIs, web servers, zero configuration
- Next.js — SSR, SSG and API routes supported
- NestJS — TypeScript, modular architecture
- Fastify, Koa, Hapi — automatically detected via package.json
- Workers and microservices — deployable as independent instances
0202 TypeScript, full-stack, monorepo — all supported
Clever Cloud compiles your TypeScript project at build time (via tsc or ts-node depending on your configuration). No manual transpilation management in production.
For full-stack Next.js projects, the platform handles the build and Node.js server startup in a single deployment. Public environment variables (NEXT_PUBLIC_*) and private ones are managed separately and securely. For monorepos, Clever Cloud supports npm and yarn workspaces. Each service can be deployed as an independent application with its own environment variables.0303 Auto Scaling
Whether you run an e-commerce or a business-oriented application, you don’t always need the same resources. From campaigns to seasons… We offer both manual and auto-scaling.

How do I deploy an Express.js application on Clever Cloud?
Link your Git repository to Clever Cloud, configure the deployment branch, and run git push. The platform detects Express automatically, installs npm dependencies, and starts the application. Expect less than 5 minutes for a first deployment.
Is Next.js supported on Clever Cloud?
Yes. Next.js is supported in SSR mode (Node.js server) and static mode (export). The build (npm run build) runs automatically on deployment. NEXT_PUBLIC_* environment variables are injected at build time, all others at runtime.
Does Clever Cloud support TypeScript?
Yes. TypeScript is compiled automatically at build time if your project contains a tsconfig.json. You can use tsc, ts-node, or any build tool (Vite, esbuild, etc.) via the npm run build script.
Which Node.js version is available?
All active Node.js LTS versions are available, as well as older versions. The version is configurable via the CC_NODE_VERSION environment variable. Security patches are applied automatically by Clever Cloud.
How do I host a Node.js backend with a PostgreSQL database on Clever Cloud?
Create a Node.js application and a managed PostgreSQL database from the console. Clever Cloud automatically injects the DATABASE_URL environment variable into your application. No additional network configuration is required.
