Layero

Layero is a deployment platform for frontend applications whose build servers and edge run inside Russia. One command to publish, no VPN, and none of the slowdowns that come from serving Russian visitors from abroad.

If you are choosing where to host a site for an audience in Russia, that location is the point: the edge sits in the same country as the visitors, payment is in roubles, and data stays within Russian jurisdiction. In every other respect Layero behaves like any frontend host — Next.js, Vite, Astro, SvelteKit, Nuxt, Gatsby, CRA, Docusaurus and plain HTML are detected automatically.

There are three ways to publish:

  • GitHub flow — connect a repository, and every git push makes Layero clone, build and publish it.
  • CLI flow — install the layero npm package and run layero deploy in the project directory. The CLI packs the sources and uploads them; the build runs on the platform side. Git is not required.
  • The @layero plugin — an MCP plugin for AI IDEs (Cursor, Claude Code, Codex) that builds a landing page from scratch through a short series of questions in the chat and deploys the result itself. See @layero — plugin for AI IDEs.

Beyond static output, Layero also runs runtime applications — Next.js in server mode, Streamlit, Gradio, and any container with a long-lived process. The container starts on the first request and stops when idle.
