Why deploy vibe-coded apps on Catalyst Slate?
Vibe-coded apps are ideal for getting prototypes done quickly, but hosting an app meant to handle real traffic requires a platform with production-ready infrastructure.
Hosting your apps in a vibe coding platform makes it difficult to make changes to your app after deployment, ensure security and compliance, and maintain control and visibility.
By deploying your app on Catalyst Slate, you can keep it automatically updated with every code change and run it on a production-ready full stack platform.
