Services

What runs in your project (a website, an API, background workers, scheduled jobs, static files) and how it is set up in services.json.

A project's services.json lists what runs:

Type	For
`web`	A site or web app
`api`	An API on its own address
`worker`	A background process
`cron`	A scheduled job (paid plans)
`static`	A folder of files, optionally with a dev server in the preview (the shape for Vite apps)

Each service has a command for the preview (dev, with hot reload) and for the live site (build and start), the port it listens on, and a health check page. Services other than the site get their own address, or a path on the site through routing.

The portal's Services & logs screen shows what runs, its health and its output.
