You can find the step-by-step deployment guide [here](https://hostman.com/docs/app-platform/backend-apps/).

Hostman uses the following environment when building a Phoenix application:

-   Elixir 1.15–1.19 (you can select the version when creating an App)
-   Erlang
-   inotify-tools

By default, we will execute the following commands during the build:

```shell
apt install -y elixir erlang inotify-tools --fix-missing
```

The default command used to run the application is:

```shell
mix phx.server
```

Make sure that:

-   The `mix.exs` file is located in the root of the project.
-   The file contains the correct configuration for your Phoenix application.
