Public summary
Make it straightforward for a developer who is new to hosting to take a working Objo Web app from local Run/Debug to their own internet-accessible server.
Studio already produces a self-contained server executable, but users must work out the remaining deployment steps themselves. The current deployment guide describes requirements such as HTTPS, reverse proxies, automatic restarts and backups without providing a complete walkthrough.
Provide a clearer Web publishing workflow, generated server configuration and an end-to-end DigitalOcean Droplet tutorial. Users should understand what Publish creates, choose the correct server target, test their app, and deploy it at an HTTPS address that keeps working after a server reboot. Explain how to update the application while preserving its data and how to diagnose common failures.
This feature concerns servers owned and managed by the user. Objo-operated hosting and hosting subscriptions are outside its scope.
