What it does
Deploy the built app to a public URL. Primary Publish button is persistent in the top header. Full publish flow is a right-pane panel (see Anything.com - Code and Publish).
Publish panel details
- Platform toggle:
Web and backend/Mobile app(segmented tabs). - Domain field: auto-assigned subdomain like
calculator-xx.anything.app. - Custom domain: gated to Pro tier (inline "Upgrade to Pro" link).
- Page counter: shows number of pages being published (e.g.,
1 page). - Primary action:
Publish changes(solid dark button).
Platform split
The Web and backend vs Mobile app split implies publish targets are scoped independently — you can publish just the web piece, just the mobile piece, or both. Different build + deploy pipelines under the hood.
Gating
- Subdomain: free.
- Custom domain: Pro+.
- Mobile app store distribution: presumably requires Mobile App Settings configured (see Anything.com - App Store Marketing).
Differentiators vs Replit
- Replit publishes per-artifact (Replit - Publish App), selecting one artifact at a time from the project. Anything.com publishes the whole project, with platform split.
- Replit's publish flow has richer ancillary features (feedback widget, referral badge, auto-deploy-on-push). Anything.com's is simpler — fewer configurable knobs.
- Custom domain gating: both gate this behind a paid tier. Near-universal pattern.
