Canvas Sweeper Deployment ( Devlog #14 )

I’m finally getting Canvas Sweeper ready to go online. I’m going to host it on my own Ubuntu server using Docker, then connect the frontend, backend, database, HTTPS, and the public URL.

Since I already have the server, I won’t pay for hosting like Vercel or Render, which is pretty cool because I can run the whole thing myself and keep upgrading it later.

Today I worked on getting the release ready and security. I added and tested rate limits, user isolation, secret scanning, CodeQL, Gitleaks, container scanning, safer Docker builds, and a full GitHub release pipeline. I also spent a lot of time fixing random CI issues that only showed up once everything started running in GitHub.

What’s Next

• Finish the last security checks
• Set up the server
• Connect the domain
• Put Canvas Sweeper online
