Introduction
Learn about monolayer, a next-generation developer platform designed to radically simplify full-stack application development and deployment.
Meet monolayer
monolayer is a developer platform that connects your application code with the cloud infrastructure it needs — automatically.
You can focus entirely on building your app, while monolayer provisions and deploys everything behind the scenes.
With monolayer, you can:
- Define background jobs, cron tasks, databases, Realtime channels (WebSockets), and storage buckets directly in your app code.
- Spin up preview environments for every branch, with live databases and migrations applied.
- Deploy to production with a single step, no Terraform, no YAML.
- And run all of this inside your own cloud account — so you keep control, compliance, and flexibility.
It's optimized for the entire software development lifecycle: from coding, to testing, to deployment, to operating in production. And because it runs on your own AWS account, you don't get locked into yet another PaaS.
