Deploying a dApp

Предупреждение

This feature is only available to beta testers. Join the Remix beta program to get access.

You can deploy dApps generated by QuickDApp on IPFS and link them to an ENS domain directly from Remix.

Remix automatically provides a free ENS subdomain under remixdapp.eth for your dApp with no gas fees required.

Deploying to IPFS

Before you deploy to IPFS, you must have a smart contract compiled and deployed using the Deploy & Run plugin, and a dApp generated by the QuickDApp plugin.

Примечание

When you are configuring rules for the dApp generation, ensure that you leave the «Create as Base Mini App» checkbox unchecked.

After QuickDApp generates your dApp, expand the «Publish to IPFS» tab in QuickDApp’s right panel and click the «Deploy to IPFS» button. This bundles and uploads your files to IPFS. Once the upload is complete, a CID (Content Identifier) is returned. This is a unique address that identifies your dApp on the network and is used as the target when registering the ENS subdomain.

Register ENS subdomain

Once your dApp is on IPFS, you can link it to a human-readable ENS subdomain under remixdapp.eth (e.g. myapp.remixdapp.eth) so users can access it without needing the raw CID.

Registration transactions are processed on Arbitrum One (L2), with gas fees covered by the Remix backend, so you pay nothing. To register the subdomain, expand the «Register ENS (Arbitrum)» tab in the QuickDApp right panel.

Примечание

This tab only becomes visible after the deployment to IPFS is complete.

Enter your preferred subdomain name (e.g., bridge.remixdapp.eth) and Remix will check its availability. Once you have selected an available subdomain, click the «Register Subdomain» button and wait for the server to process the registration.

Примечание

The returned URLs have .limo appended (e.g. myapp.remixdapp.eth.limo). This is because standard web browsers cannot natively resolve .eth domains. .limo is a gateway service that resolves ENS names and serves the underlying IPFS content over HTTPS.

Your dApp is now live at https://[yourname].remixdapp.eth.limo.
