FAQ

Common questions about Platform.

How do I get started?

Create a free account, configure your environment variables, and deploy the auth-backend with SAM. The dashboard walks you through the rest.

Does Platform support social login?

Yes. Google and GitHub OAuth are built in. Configure your client IDs in the backend template parameters or .env file.

Can I use my own database?

The default stack uses DynamoDB via AWS SAM. The API layer is standard REST, so you can adapt the data layer if needed.

What is authlog?

Authlog is an optional audit and multi-tenant layer. When NEXT_PUBLIC_AUTHLOG_URL is set, the dashboard shows immutable audit events and advanced admin features.

How do I publish blog posts or projects?

Use the Blogs and Projects sections in your dashboard. Set status to "Published" and they appear on the public /blog and /projects pages.
