The below are all the commands you need to run -- make sure to replace the IP with your own.

before deploying:
  make sure environment variables are correct (.env vs .env.local)
  npm build script (if you use prisma)
    "build": "prisma db push && next build"
ssh [email protected]
apt install npm
npm install -g n
n latest
nginx -v
nginx allows you to :
  remove the port from the url
  host multiple apps on the same server
    e.g. you can host your blog and your app on the same server
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/cool-app.conf
  server {
    listen 80;
    server_name 62.72.26.118;

    location / {
      proxy_pass http://localhost:3000;
      proxy_http_version 1.1;
      proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
      proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
      proxy_set_header Host $host;
      proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
    }
  }
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/cool-app.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
ls /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
sudo service nginx restart
mkdir /var/www/cool-app
cd /var/www/cool-app
git clone repo
cd into there (cd cool-app)
npm install
  if this gives you an error try exiting and then ssh'ing back in
npm run build
npm run start
you should now see your app if you go to your browser go to the IP address
if it works, you can make it more sophisticated with e.g.:
  - easy editing by SSH'ing into it directly in VS Code (special feature in VS Code)
  - PM2
  - GitHub Actions
