Q: How does netlify / hosting work
If I use Greta provided netlify does it allow me to go beyond the netlify free acount limits? Can I add custom domains to greta provided netlify hosting? If I build the app in greta and claim it in my free ntlify account - how do the limits work? I understand I also have the option of self hosting in node.js server - is there any documentation on how to set up the environment etc for a greta generate app in my own node.js server (by serveravatar)

Jul 10, 2025A: Greta deploys apps first on our shared Netlify—limits are similar to Netlify free tier.
To go beyond that or add custom domains, you can claim the project to your own Netlify account.
For self-hosting, you can download the code or push to GitHub and host it on your own Node.js server—basic Node.js + Supabase setup applies, a bunch of dev & documentation in there is in progress.
Please let me know if you have any follow ups 🙌
JakeVanPLUSYou deploy on Netlify then you click the Connect Domain button and this will force you to move the project into your own personal Netlify account.
Once thats done the project and site is completely in your control and yes you can upgrade your Netlify as you need.

c9266e2920fe4472b90ca66b0e585096once you deploy and move it to Netlify, how do you do updates or changes to your project that you made in Greta? With me not being a coder, its one thing to create an app with Greta, but I am curious how I would edit (add features, change information, etc) when needed.
JakeVanPLUSSame way you built it. Once its deployed and claimed into your account, all redeployments go to your live application in your Netlify.
So add new features with Greta and just click re deploy to push the updates live.
JakeVanPLUSThere is no current documentation for ServerAvatar.
ServerAvatar should be no problem to pull the github repo into an application, you just need to have the proper tech stack on your server.
Node.js with MongoDB would be the best for full stack options but since Greta uses Supabase you just need to make sure React apps are supported so Nginx &Apache SHOULD still work. Just install Node.js!
