How app hosting on Falix works
The mental model behind every Falix app server — one Linux box, one folder of files, one Start button, and one public port.
Beginner
Create your first app server
Create a server, choose an application, press Start, deploy a ready-made template, and change or delete it later — the whole first-server flow, click by click.
Beginner
Environment variables and secrets
The two different things Falix calls "variables", and where your bot token and other secrets actually belong — a .env file, never your code or Git.
Beginner
Keeping your app online
How the free session timer really works, why uptime pingers don't help, and the difference between a crash, a timeout, and a script that simply finished.
Beginner
How one-click templates work
Drop a set of known-good starter files onto your server in one click — what actually happens, the overwrite and application-switch rules, and the ten templates available today.
Beginner
What should I build first?
A quick chooser that points you at the right starter guide — a Minecraft world, a Discord bot, a website, or your first real app — with an honest word on how much time and code each one takes.
Beginner
Protect your account
Your Falix account holds every server you own — and its password is also your SFTP login. Here's how to lock it down: a strong password, two-factor authentication, passkeys, and knowing what your active sessions page can do.
Beginner
How updates reach your server
A clear mental model of what changes on your server and who changes it — panel updates from Falix, your own files from deploys and uploads, runtime versions you pick, and the reinstalls that wipe files. Know which is which and nothing surprises you.
Beginner
Getting help the right way
The panel is built to help you help yourself — smart diagnostics, one-click log sharing that redacts secrets, and an AI assistant that can read your server. Here's the order to try things in, and exactly what to hand over when you do ask a human.
Beginner
Free vs premium, honestly
Everything the free plan includes, everything premium changes, and a straight answer to "do I need to pay?" — in one comparison.
