# Webflow Cloud

> Learn about Webflow Cloud, a platform for building and deploying web applications on Webflow

Webflow Cloud is a deployment and hosting environment for full-stack applications.
You can deploy applications alongside Webflow sites or separately to take advantage of Webflow's streamlined hosting platform for applications that are powered by modern web frameworks on the fast Edge runtime.

## Get started

#### [Deploy with one click](/webflow-cloud/deploy-button)

Use or create a button that deploys an application from Github to Webflow Cloud.

#### [Getting started](/webflow-cloud/getting-started)

Deploy a template app in minutes with our step-by-step guide.

#### [Bring your own app](/webflow-cloud/bring-your-own-app)

Already have a codebase? Follow these steps to deploy it on Webflow Cloud.

## Supported frameworks

Webflow Cloud currently supports Next.js and Astro:

#### [Next.js](/webflow-cloud/getting-started)

Deploy full-stack Next.js applications with powerful server-side rendering, intelligent page optimization, and seamless integration with Webflow components.

#### [Astro](/webflow-cloud/getting-started)

Create high-performance, content-focused websites that ship minimal JavaScript by default while preserving Webflow's design capabilities.

## Storage

Webflow Cloud provides built-in, flexible storage for modern web apps.

#### [SQLite](/webflow-cloud/storing-data/sqlite)

Reliable, relational storage for structured data

#### [Key Value Store](/webflow-cloud/storing-data/key-value-store)

Fast, edge-cached storage for unstructured data

#### [Object Storage](/webflow-cloud/storing-data/object-storage)

Scalable, secure storage for files and media

## Webflow CLI

The Webflow CLI includes commands for working with Webflow Cloud applications.
See the [Webflow Cloud](/cli/command-reference#webflow-cloud) section of the CLI command reference.

## Working with Webflow Cloud

Webflow Cloud applications can be part of a site or an independent app in the Workspace.
In either case, you store the code of the application on a GitHub repository and Webflow Cloud deploys the application when you make changes to the repository.
The primary difference is that creating an app as an independent app allows you to host the app at a root URL, such as `my-app.webflow.io`, rather than `my-site.webflow.io/my-app`.

* To create a Webflow Cloud app that is part of a site, open the site settings, go to **Webflow Cloud**, click **New project > Create app**, and follow the steps to import the GitHub repository with the app.

  Apps that you create in this way are shown in the site settings, in the **Webflow Cloud** section, as in this picture:

* To create a Webflow cloud app that is not part of a site, go to the dashboard and click **New Project > App**, and follow the steps to import the GitHub repository with the app.

  Apps that you create in this way are shown as an app in the **Apps** tab, on the same level as sites in your Workspace, as in this picture:

Webflow Cloud applications have these components:

#### Apps

Apps are the foundational building blocks in Webflow Cloud.
Each app represents a distinct application or service that you want to deploy alongside your Webflow site or as a separate application.

#### [Environments](/webflow-cloud/environments)

Environments enable you to maintain different versions of your application for development, testing, and production use.
Key features include:

* Multiple environments per app
* Separate environment variables and configurations
* Branch-based deployments

For more information about environments, see [Environments](/webflow-cloud/environments).

#### [Deployments](/webflow-cloud/deployments)

Deployments represent the process of pushing your code to an environment. Webflow Cloud provides:

* Automated build and deployment pipelines
* Deployment logs and monitoring

For more information about deployments, see [Deployments](/webflow-cloud/deployments).
