Never tried free hosting myself. I personally use a cheap VPS. But it took 5 seconds to find a hit on google :) https://www.freehosting.com/free-hosting.html

Laravel Project Deployment
Hi! It's been a fun experience trying to learn Laravel and this community has been welcoming. I'm finally at a stage where I can pretty much say that I'm content with my project. Now I want to try uploading my website to the internet through a hosting site. Is their any you recommend?(preferably free)

@Sinnbeck thanks for the recommendation. I never heard of a VPS before. Would you recommend it to someone like me with no prior experience?

@Bunnypants it just means virtual private server. So a full server but hardly any money. Think the cheapest at digital ocean is $5. But naturally it will require that you learn a bit of Linux and such as you need to set up both apache2 (or nginx), mysql and php. Maybe to get started a cheap share hosting like one.com is fine

@Niush Does Fly have a free database service?

@pjr I am not sure about Fly. But, Render does have free PostgreSQL.
Also, there is PlanetScale just for database. And, Mongo Atlas for NoSQL. Both with generous free plan.
