# Deploy All Projects

> Pull repos and run all projects with automated CI/CD

## Create the apps directory

When you first open the VPS terminal, create a folder to hold all your projects:

```bash theme={null}
mkdir -p ~/apps
cd ~/apps
```

## Clone all repositories

```bash theme={null}
git clone git@github.com:yourorg/j-optic-backend.git
...
```

## Run CI/CD

Each project has its own CI/CD pipeline (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.) configured in the repo. Once cloned, the pipeline will automatically:

* Install dependencies (`pnpm install`)
* Run builds (`pnpm build`)
* Run migrations (Prisma for PostgreSQL projects)
* Start the apps under PM2

```bash theme={null}
cd ~/apps
# CI/CD pipelines trigger automatically on push, or manually via your Git provider's UI
```

<Note>
  Make sure environment files (`.env`) are set up in each project directory with the correct database, Redis, and API credentials before triggering the pipeline.
</Note>

<Check>
  Verify all apps are running:

  ```bash theme={null}
    pm2 list
  ```
</Check>

That's it — the automation handles the rest.
