Built with Magic.dev? Deploy it to Railway.
Step-by-step deployment help for Magic.dev-built apps on Railway. We fix deployment issues, configure Railway correctly, and get your app live in production. From $19.
Magic.dev issues we fix before deploying
Problems specific to Magic.dev's code generation that affect Railway deployments.
Complex implementations that are difficult to maintain
Magic.dev's ability to generate large, multi-file implementations means it can produce sophisticated code that works but is hard for human engineers to understand, debug, or extend.
Security decisions made at scale without explicit review
When Magic.dev generates an entire feature spanning many files, security decisions — API authentication, data access patterns, input validation — are embedded throughout without a clear review surface.
Over-engineered solutions for straightforward requirements
Magic.dev tends toward comprehensive, extensible implementations. Simple CRUD operations may receive complex abstraction layers, generic type systems, and plugin architectures that add maintenance burden.
Dependency on Magic.dev's specific AI model for future changes
Complex generated codebases are easiest to modify by re-running Magic.dev with updated prompts. This creates dependence on continued access to their service for ongoing development.
Railway deployment issues we check for
Common Railway problems that break AI-generated apps in production.
Nixpacks detects the wrong build system
Monorepo projects or apps with multiple package managers confuse Nixpacks auto-detection, resulting in incorrect build commands and failed deployments.
Volume data lost on redeploy
AI-generated apps store uploaded files or SQLite databases on the filesystem without configuring Railway volumes, losing all data on each new deployment.
Private networking misconfigured between services
Internal service communication uses public URLs instead of Railway's private network (*.railway.internal), adding latency and exposing internal APIs publicly.
Health check endpoint missing
Railway restarts services that fail health checks. AI-generated servers often lack a /health endpoint, causing unnecessary restart loops.

Frequently asked questions
Can you deploy a Magic.dev-built app to Railway?
Yes. We regularly deploy Magic.dev-generated projects to Railway. We handle the platform-specific configuration, fix deployment errors, and ensure your app runs reliably in production on Railway.
What Railway issues do Magic.dev projects typically have?
Magic.dev projects commonly have complex implementations that are difficult to maintain and security decisions made at scale without explicit review. When deploying to Railway, these combine with platform-specific issues like nixpacks detects the wrong build system and volume data lost on redeploy.
How do I get my Magic.dev project live on Railway?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a prioritized list of deployment blockers. For Magic.dev-built projects targeting Railway, the typical path is: fix Magic.dev-specific code issues, configure Railway settings correctly, then deploy. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
Can you handle the full deployment of my Magic.dev app to Railway?
Yes. We handle end-to-end deployment: auditing your Magic.dev codebase, fixing deployment blockers, configuring Railway correctly, setting up environment variables, and getting your app live in production. Start with our code audit ($19).
