Documentation
Eight short articles that answer exactly what they're titled - setup, deploying, domains, limits and billing, each with a concrete number instead of a maybe. No article assumes you've read another one first; jump straight to the question you actually have.
New here?
Everything else on this page is reference. These three, read in sequence, are the whole path from nothing to a live site.
The one question that makes the rest of these make sense - what qualifies as static, and why that's what makes it fast and hard to break.
A Git repository, a zip upload, the CLI, or the MCP server for an AI assistant - four articles below cover the same action four different ways; none of them is the "real" one.
Optional, and 99¢ a month more - two DNS records at your registrar and it's yours, with SSL added automatically.
Getting started
Two short reference articles that set the scope before you touch anything else - what actually runs here, and where the ceilings are.
What qualifies, what doesn't, and why static HTML loads faster and breaks less often than a database-backed site with a plugin stack behind it.
1 GB storage, 250 GB bandwidth a month, 25 MB per file, and what actually happens as you approach any of those ceilings.
Deploying
Four articles, one for each route in - the same result on every one of them, just a different door. If you already commit code, Git is the natural fit. If you don't, the zip upload skips Git entirely. Working from a terminal, the CLI wraps the same action in one line; working inside an AI assistant, the MCP server lets it publish on your behalf.
Connect once. Every push after that republishes the site automatically, in the order the pushes arrive.
Drag a folder or zip into the browser - no Git, no terminal, no account setup step beyond your own.
npx lemonade-host deploy, run from wherever your files already sit on disk - no separate install step.
Let an AI assistant publish for you, through a scoped token that can deploy but can't touch billing.
Domains
The free you.lemonhosted.com subdomain works on day one with no setup. A custom domain is optional, for 99¢ a month on top of the site.
