As `Bifrost` uses multiple sub-modules (`core`, `framework`, etc.) and also embeds the front-end into a single binary (embed.FS), we use a custom Docker build step before we hand over the deployment to flyctl.

There are two ways to deploy Bifrost on Fly.io:

1. By cloning the repo
2. Using flyctl + Docker Hub image

## By cloning the repo

1. Clone https://github.com/maximhq/bifrost
2. Ensure [Make](/deployment-guides/how-to/install-make) is installed.
3. Run `make deploy-to-fly-io APP_NAME=<your-fly-app-name>`


## Using flyctl + Docker Hub image

1. Update your `fly.toml` to specify the Bifrost Docker Hub image.

```toml
[build]
image = "maximhq/bifrost:latest"
```

2. Or you can specify the Docker Hub image path in the command:

```
fly deploy --app <your-app-name> --image docker.io/maximhq/bifrost:latest
```
