Deploy your Ruby on Rails app to GitHub Pages
Step-by-step deployment help for Ruby on Rails apps on GitHub Pages. We fix Ruby on Rails-specific deployment issues, configure GitHub Pages, and get your app live. From $19.
Ruby on Rails issues we fix before deploying
Common Ruby on Rails problems that affect GitHub Pages deployments.
Mass assignment vulnerabilities
AI-generated Rails controllers that use permit! or don't properly whitelist params, allowing attackers to modify any database column including admin flags and passwords.
Missing authorization checks
Controllers that authenticate users but don't check authorization — a logged-in user can access or modify any other user's data by changing the ID in the URL.
N+1 query problems
ActiveRecord code that loads associated records in loops without includes, eager_load, or preload — causing hundreds of database queries on pages with lists.
Unsafe use of raw SQL
AI tools sometimes generate raw SQL with string interpolation instead of using ActiveRecord's parameterized query methods, enabling SQL injection attacks.
GitHub Pages deployment issues we check for
Common GitHub Pages problems that break Ruby on Rails 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 Ruby on Rails app to GitHub Pages?
We handle Ruby on Rails deployments to GitHub Pages end to end. Start with our code audit ($19) to identify deployment blockers specific to your Ruby on Rails project, then we configure GitHub Pages, fix issues, and get your app live in production.
What Ruby on Rails issues affect GitHub Pages deployments?
Ruby on Rails projects commonly have mass assignment vulnerabilities and missing authorization checks. 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 Ruby on Rails project to GitHub Pages?
Yes. We specialize in deploying Ruby on Rails applications to GitHub Pages. We audit your codebase for Ruby on Rails-specific issues, configure GitHub Pages correctly, and handle the full deployment so your app runs reliably in production.
What does Ruby on Rails deployment to GitHub Pages cost?
Our code audit ($19) identifies all GitHub Pages deployment blockers in your Ruby on Rails project. Full deployment assistance is scoped with a fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing or surprise charges.
