Deploy an App via Pre-defined Sidecar

Introduction: Deploying an externally hosted app via Quick start tutorial.

An introduction to developing a simple full-stack application, then publishing it onto the platform using the pre-defined Sidecar through a step-by-step approach. The Tech stack used in the tutorial will be Python FastAPI for our server-side API, served by Nuxt JS, a sub framework of Vue JS. The app will output a JSON response, fetched and displayed on our client-side app.
