Basic Fresh site

This tutorial will cover how to deploy a Fresh application on Deno Deploy.

Fresh is a web framework built for Deno, akin to Express for Node.

Step 1: Create Fresh application​

deno run -A -r https://fresh.deno.dev fresh-site

To run this application locally:

deno task start

You can edit routes/index.js to modify the application.

  1. Create a new Github repo and record the git repo remote URL

  2. From your local fresh-site, initialize git and push to the new remote repo:

    git init
    git add .
    git commit -m "First commit"
    git remote add origin <remote-url>
    git push origin main

Step 3: Deploy to Deno Deploy​

  1. Navigate to https://dash.deno.com/new and click the +New Project button.
  2. On the next page, choose the Deploy from Github repository card.
  3. To fill in the values on the form, choose:
    • the new fresh-site Github repo that you just created
      • automatic (fastest)
    • main branch
    • main.ts as the entrypoint file
