My app is almost ready to launch and I want to see if it works (or how it works) on the server before I properly launch it. Since this is my first ever launch-ready app, I'm not sure what to do and how to do it.
Should I just upload the whole app and temporarily disable registration routes until it's ready to launch? Is there an easier way to do tests (like maintenance mode) on the server?
My app is in Laravel 11.31.0 version, using PHP8.2 and Livewire 3.
Any tips are appreciated. Thanks.
@motinska94 The simple answer is just to maintain the test or stagging environment for pre-production.
There are many articles about it. I just randomly refer this one: https://medium.com/swlh/how-to-set-up-your-staging-environment-for-web-applications-480e0138e620
I don't want to sound mean, but when you launch it, who will notice? Making a site is the first hurdle, the next one is driving traffic to it.
