# Tutorial #12 — From AI Generation to Deployment

> Take an app from AI generation to deployment with AutoCoder.cc: test it, deploy it, connect a domain, export the source code, run it locally, or self-host it.

Take your app from AI generation all the way to deployment with [AutoCoder.cc](https://www.autocoder.cc/platform?utm_source=blog\&utm_medium=tutorials\&utm_campaign=DeployYourWay "Build full-stack apps with AutoCoder.cc") — test it, deploy it, connect a domain, or export the source code and host it on infrastructure you control.

## What you'll learn

* **Managed deployment** — deploy directly with AutoCoder.cc for the fastest way to go live
* **Domain options** — use an AutoCoder subdomain, buy a new domain, or connect an existing one
* **Run locally** — export the source code and continue development in your own environment
* **Self-hosted deployment** — deploy to your own server and manage your own database and infrastructure

## Why owning your deployment matters

Learn how to take an application from AI generation all the way to deployment with AutoCoder.cc. This tutorial walks through testing your app, deploying it with AutoCoder.cc, connecting a domain, exporting the full source code, running the project locally, and preparing it for self-hosted deployment on your own infrastructure.

Choose the workflow that fits your needs — deploy quickly with AutoCoder.cc, or export your code and host it on infrastructure you control. Build with AI. Deploy your way. Own your code.
