A 5-minute orientation: what SparkCloud is, what you can build on it, and how billing works.

Provision a real Linux container, log in over SSH, and verify the resource limits work.

Replace the auto-generated password with public-key auth, then disable password login entirely.

Point your own domain at a container's exposed port, with optional HTTPS via a reverse proxy.

Spin up a full VS Code environment that auto-hibernates when you walk away.

Understand the difference between stopped, hibernated, and frozen — and when each one is right.

Create a managed Postgres instance and connect to it from your app.

Schedule automatic backups, take manual snapshots, and restore from a previous point.

Deploy a folder of HTML/CSS/JS to a public URL — no node, no container, no build step.

Point yourdomain.com at a Tile and serve from your own URL with HTTPS.

Add a simple password gate in front of a Tile for client previews or private docs.

Add the right meta tags so links to your Tile show a real preview on Twitter, Discord, and Slack.

Upload images, downloads, and large media files and serve them from a stable URL.

See where your storage is going, free space up, or request a quota increase.

Add credits, redeem vouchers, and audit every charge from the Transactions page.

Create a personal API key and use it from a script, CI job, or local CLI.

Call the OpenAI-compatible endpoint with the official SDK and stream replies to your users.

Skip passwords entirely by signing in with GitHub, Google, or any provider an admin has wired up.

When a project ends, the right way to stop paying for it without losing anything important.
