Vercel

Hosting platform for frontends and web apps

What it is

Vercel is a platform that builds web apps from a Git repository and serves them worldwide, with a particular focus on Next.js. Every pull request gets its own preview URL, server-side code runs as functions on Fluid Compute, and a firewall, analytics and logs come built in. With AI Gateway, Sandbox and v0, Vercel now also covers building AI applications.

Install
npm i -g vercel
Why it made the cut
  • A preview deployment for every pull request
  • Fluid Compute billed by active CPU time
  • AI Gateway for many models behind one interface
