Deploy your PlanetScale app to GitHub Pages
Step-by-step deployment help for PlanetScale apps on GitHub Pages. We fix PlanetScale-specific deployment issues, configure GitHub Pages, and get your app live. From $19.
PlanetScale issues we fix before deploying
Common PlanetScale problems that affect GitHub Pages deployments.
Foreign key constraint workarounds
PlanetScale doesn't support traditional foreign keys. AI-generated code creates them anyway, causing deployment failures, or skips referential integrity entirely.
Connection string exposure
PlanetScale database URLs with credentials committed to source control or embedded in client-side code.
Missing connection pooling
Serverless functions opening new connections on every invocation instead of using PlanetScale's connection pooling or @planetscale/database driver.
No branch workflow for schema changes
Schema changes deployed directly to the main branch without using PlanetScale's deploy request workflow, risking production data.
GitHub Pages deployment issues we check for
Common GitHub Pages problems that break PlanetScale apps in production.
Client-side routing returns 404 on refresh
React Router and other SPA routers break on page refresh because GitHub Pages doesn't support URL rewrites. Only the root index.html is served for the base path.
API routes have no server to run on
AI-generated Next.js or Express backends can't run on GitHub Pages. There's no server-side execution — only static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript are served.
Base path not configured for project sites
Project sites deploy to username.github.io/repo-name, but AI tools build with root (/) as the base path, breaking all asset and route references.
Custom domain DNS propagation issues
CNAME file missing from the build output or DNS records misconfigured, causing the custom domain to point nowhere or show GitHub's 404 page.

Frequently asked questions
How do I deploy a PlanetScale app to GitHub Pages?
We handle PlanetScale deployments to GitHub Pages end to end. Start with our code audit ($19) to identify deployment blockers specific to your PlanetScale project, then we configure GitHub Pages, fix issues, and get your app live in production.
What PlanetScale issues affect GitHub Pages deployments?
PlanetScale projects commonly have foreign key constraint workarounds and connection string exposure. On GitHub Pages, these combine with client-side routing returns 404 on refresh and api routes have no server to run on to cause deployment failures.
Can SpringCode deploy my PlanetScale project to GitHub Pages?
Yes. We specialize in deploying PlanetScale applications to GitHub Pages. We audit your codebase for PlanetScale-specific issues, configure GitHub Pages correctly, and handle the full deployment so your app runs reliably in production.
What does PlanetScale deployment to GitHub Pages cost?
Our code audit ($19) identifies all GitHub Pages deployment blockers in your PlanetScale project. Full deployment assistance is scoped with a fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing or surprise charges.
