Do I still need to run a Node server myself?
No. Drop your build output and the platform serves it globally. There's no VPS to rent, no process manager, and no uptime monitoring to configure.
Which Next.js output modes are supported?
Static export and prerendered pages deploy directly. Dynamic API routes and server logic run on serverless functions alongside your pages.
How do I handle environment variables?
Set them in your project settings. Public values are available at build time and private secrets stay server-side inside functions.
Will routing and dynamic paths work?
Yes. Nested routes, dynamic segments, and page refreshes all resolve correctly — no 404s on deep links.
Can I connect a custom domain?
Yes. Add your domain and free SSL is issued automatically, with global CDN caching enabled by default.
Do I need to create an account to use Makers Drop?
Without registration, the access links generated after successful deployment will be valid for only 1 hour. After registration, they will be permanently retained. Please note that due to local laws and regulations, users in China need to register and log in to the console to obtain domain access links, while users in other regions can use the service without registration.
