How do I get it online?

  1. Step 1 · Download from Bolt

    Click the project title, then Export, then Download. Unzip the file on your computer.

  2. Step 2 · Build

    In the unzipped folder run npm install then npm run build. Most Bolt projects are Vite apps that output dist/.

  3. Step 3 · Deploy

    Run npx novence deploy ./dist and open the printed live URL.

  4. Step 4 · Add your domain

    Claim the site with your email, then novence domains add www.yourbusiness.com and add the DNS records.

Your domain without the upgrade

Bolt's free hosting publishes to a .bolt.host address. Connecting your own domain needs a paid plan. On Novence, one custom domain with automatic HTTPS is part of the Free plan.

Keep building in Bolt if you like its editor. When you want to publish, download, build, and deploy again. The live URL and domain stay the same.

What works on Novence?

  • Bolt Vite + React apps built to dist/
  • Client-side routing with /_redirects (/* /index.html 200)
  • Need a database or login? Keep Supabase (or any API) — your site calls it directly from the browser
  • Contact and quote forms with Novence Forms — submissions land in your inbox

FAQ

Can I use a custom domain with a Bolt site for free?

Yes, by hosting the exported build on Novence. Novence Free includes one custom domain and SSL at $0 after email verification.

Where is the build folder?

Usually dist/ after npm run build. If your project uses a different folder, pass it: npx novence deploy ./build.

Does my Bolt database still work?

If the app talks to a hosted database such as Supabase from the browser, yes. Keep the same environment variables when you build.

Can I switch back to Bolt hosting later?

Yes. It is your code. Point your domain wherever you like.
