Open up the deployment popup in Noodl to save a version of your frontend to a folder on your local machine, this folder will contain everything needed and you can simply upload the content to your hosting service.

Make sure you pick the backend you want to use for the deploy.

## Hosting your Frontend at GCP or AWS

- **Google Cloud Platform** If you would like use GCP to host the frontend you can follow this [guide](https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/hosting-static-website). There you will create a bucket, a load balancer and a CDN.

- **Amazon Web Services** If you prefer to use AWS you can watch this [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpFKnPae1oY&ab_channel=AmazonWebServices) it will explain how to create an S3 bucket and how to route traffic using the AWS DNS service, Route 53.
