## About

Light Cloud is a unified cloud platform that lets developers deploy full-stack web applications directly from GitHub repositories. It combines static site hosting, containerized backends, and managed PostgreSQL databases into a single workflow, enabling frontend, backend, and database to go live in seconds.Key FeaturesStatic & Container Deployments: Automatically detects your framework and ships static assets to a global CDN or containers to Google Cloud Run with scale-to-zero billing.Managed PostgreSQL: Provision databases with configurable tiers, regions, and storage; credentials are encrypted and wired to your app automatically.Preview Environments: Every branch and pull request gets its own live preview URL, created on push and cleaned up when the branch is deleted.AI-Powered Deployments: Deploy straight from Claude (via MCP server) or GitHub Copilot (VS Code extension) using natural language commands like /deploy, /status, and /plan.Observability Built-In: Stream build logs, monitor running services, and view metrics alongside each environment—no extra tooling required.ICE Visual Editor (Labs): An open-source, Apache 2.0 canvas for designing cloud infrastructure, previewing costs, and deploying to your own cloud accounts.Target Audience & Value PropositionLight Cloud is built for full-stack developers and teams who want to eliminate infrastructure complexity. By unifying frontend, backend, and database deployments behind a Git push, it reduces operational overhead, accelerates iteration cycles, and ensures you only pay for actual compute time thanks to scale-to-zero containers. AI-assisted deployments further lower the barrier, letting you ship from your editor or chat without opening a dashboard.
