When you build an HTML5 mobile app in Appery.io you can instantly publish the app to a URL. You have three options for hosting your app.

First, right out of the box you can publish your app to an Appery.io URL such as mycoolapp.app.appery.io, or you can use a custom domain:

Appery.io hosting

As an alternative, you can also publish the app on Heroku. Once you sign into Heroku from Appery.io, the app will be pushed and published to Heroku.

Finally, there is a third option that allows you to publish the app to any hosting provider of your choice. Simply export the app as HTML/JavaScript/CSS:

Export HTML/JS/CSS

Export HTML/JS/CSS

Then upload the file to any hosting provider of your choice. Here is one example, publishing to the BitBalloon service.

With all of these options available, hosting your HTML5 mobile app is very fast and simple.
