How to deploy an app built in Cursor
Cursor’s agent can run terminal commands in your project, so it can prepare and upload your app with one Project3000 prompt. No hosting setup, no config files to write yourself.
In short: open Cursor on your project folder, paste the Project3000 prompt from your dashboard, approve its steps, then click Deploy. Your app is live on an HTTPS link with a database included, from $9.90 per month.
Before you start
- Your app's code in a folder on your computer (open in Cursor).
- Cursor installed and signed in.
- A Project3000 account. Creating one takes a minute.
Deploy your Cursor project, step by step
- Create your account at project3000.io with Google or email, and set up two-factor sign-in (it takes a minute).
- Choose a package and create the app. Its name becomes its address:
your-name.apps.project3000.io. - Open your project folder in Cursor and start a new agent chat, with approval turned on, so it asks before it runs each command. The “See how” links in the dashboard show where both settings are.
- Copy the prompt from your dashboard and paste it into Cursor. It reads your project, adds the two files Project3000 needs (a Dockerfile and a
manifest.json), connects the app to its included database and cache, and uploads it. Approve each step when Cursor asks. - Click Deploy. Your app goes live on its own HTTPS link and runs as two copies on separate servers. Share the link with anyone.
Tips for Cursor projects
- Use the agent (not a plain chat), so Cursor can run the commands the prompt asks for.
- Leave command approval on so Cursor asks before it runs each command, including the upload.
- If the agent stops halfway, ask it to continue with the prompt’s next step; every step is safe to repeat.
