The Netlify platform provides teams everything you need
to take modern web projects from the first preview to full production
without thinking once about servers or devops.
Setup takes about five seconds:
connect to your git repository,
provide your build settings, and that’s it
Netlify automatically builds your site
and deploys it across our global edge network.
Team collaboration is at the heart of the Netlify workflow.
Any new branch or pull request gets an automatic staging URL.
Everyone can use deploy preview links to share the work as they work
—tracking builds and deploys right in GitHub comments
and notifying others in Slack.
Here’s what’s really powerful:
Netlify integrates with any other hosted service via webhooks.
Trigger new deploys to run whenever the content team
makes changes in a CMS like Contentful.
Or when the sales team updates Airtable.
Or when a customer places an order in Stripe.
There’s an entire ecosystem of modern web services
ready to plug in and make your site dynamic.
Even creating custom APIs is incredibly easy.
Just create a functions folder in your project
and drop in a function like this one.
Netlify automatically knows to deploy this code as an AWS Lambda,
complete with its own URL endpoint.
And it’s just as easy to add forms that collect data,
server-side analytics,
and even manage users and identity.
Pretty much every aspect of Netlify can be customized by your team.
Bring your favorite technologies and
pick from dozens of popular site generators
to build sites and apps in the language and frameworks of your choosing.
You can even customize the entire build process with plugins
to check your code for accessibility issues,
create sitemaps,
look for broken links,
or run performance monitoring.
If you don’t see the plugin you need,
it’s easy to create your own and share it with the community.
That’s just the beginning, but the best way to
really explore Netlify is to try it for yourself.
We’re excited to see what you build!
