Built with Tempo? Deploy it to DigitalOcean.
Step-by-step deployment help for Tempo-built apps on DigitalOcean. We fix deployment issues, configure DigitalOcean correctly, and get your app live in production. From $19.
Tempo issues we fix before deploying
Problems specific to Tempo's code generation that affect DigitalOcean deployments.
Generated UI components have no backend wiring and display only static or hardcoded data
Tempo generates visually accurate components but all data is hardcoded or uses placeholder values. Every component needs data fetching, API integration, and state management added before it is functional in a real application.
No authentication or authorization built into generated page components
Pages and layouts generated from Figma designs do not include route protection, session checks, or role-based rendering — all authentication logic must be added separately before the pages handle real users.
Components tightly coupled to Figma design tokens that do not match your design system
Tempo generates components using Tailwind classes and CSS values extracted from Figma, which may not align with your existing design system tokens, theme configuration, or component library — requiring a normalization pass to integrate cleanly.
No state management architecture — components are purely presentational without interaction logic
Interactive UI elements (dropdowns, modals, tabs, forms) are generated with the correct visual appearance but without state management wiring, requiring developers to add useState, useReducer, or a state library to make them functional.
DigitalOcean deployment issues we check for
Common DigitalOcean problems that break AI-generated apps in production.
App Platform buildpack fails to detect framework
AI-generated project structures with non-standard entry points or missing start scripts cause DigitalOcean's buildpack to fail during auto-detection.
Managed database connection pool exhaustion
AI tools create a new database connection per request instead of using a connection pool, exhausting DigitalOcean's managed database connection limits quickly.
Droplet firewall not configured
Freshly provisioned Droplets have all ports open by default. AI deployment scripts skip firewall configuration, exposing SSH, database, and admin ports publicly.
Spaces CDN CORS not configured
DigitalOcean Spaces requires explicit CORS headers for browser-based uploads. AI-generated frontend code fails silently when uploading files directly to Spaces.

Frequently asked questions
Can you deploy a Tempo-built app to DigitalOcean?
Yes. We regularly deploy Tempo-generated projects to DigitalOcean. We handle the platform-specific configuration, fix deployment errors, and ensure your app runs reliably in production on DigitalOcean.
What DigitalOcean issues do Tempo projects typically have?
Tempo projects commonly have generated ui components have no backend wiring and display only static or hardcoded data and no authentication or authorization built into generated page components. When deploying to DigitalOcean, these combine with platform-specific issues like app platform buildpack fails to detect framework and managed database connection pool exhaustion.
How do I get my Tempo project live on DigitalOcean?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a prioritized list of deployment blockers. For Tempo-built projects targeting DigitalOcean, the typical path is: fix Tempo-specific code issues, configure DigitalOcean settings correctly, then deploy. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
Can you handle the full deployment of my Tempo app to DigitalOcean?
Yes. We handle end-to-end deployment: auditing your Tempo codebase, fixing deployment blockers, configuring DigitalOcean correctly, setting up environment variables, and getting your app live in production. Start with our code audit ($19).
