Built with Windsurf? Deploy it to Railway.
Step-by-step deployment help for Windsurf-built apps on Railway. We fix deployment issues, configure Railway correctly, and get your app live in production. From $19.
Windsurf issues we fix before deploying
Problems specific to Windsurf's code generation that affect Railway deployments.
Incorrect auth middleware logic
Windsurf generates auth checks that look correct but have logical gaps — missing route protections, incorrect token validation, or bypassable middleware.
SQL injection in raw queries
When Windsurf uses raw SQL instead of an ORM, it sometimes concatenates user input directly into queries rather than using parameterized statements.
Silent data corruption
Type mismatches between frontend and backend go unnoticed. Data gets saved with wrong types or missing fields, causing issues that surface much later.
Circular dependency issues
Complex projects generated by Windsurf sometimes have circular imports that cause runtime errors or undefined values in specific conditions.
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 Windsurf-built app to Railway?
Yes. We regularly deploy Windsurf-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 Windsurf projects typically have?
Windsurf projects commonly have incorrect auth middleware logic and sql injection in raw queries. 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 Windsurf project live on Railway?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a prioritized list of deployment blockers. For Windsurf-built projects targeting Railway, the typical path is: fix Windsurf-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 Windsurf app to Railway?
Yes. We handle end-to-end deployment: auditing your Windsurf codebase, fixing deployment blockers, configuring Railway correctly, setting up environment variables, and getting your app live in production. Start with our code audit ($19).
