Hey again.

Wanted to ask what's the best option to deploy the WordPlate project to VPS vs Shared hosting provider. Let's say I cannot use composer, that means I cannot get the mu-plugins goodies and some other stuff, I've recently ran into those issues.

I was just wondering what are others doing.

I would not recommend using a shared hosting provider due to its hassle. Personally, I prefer using Laravel Forge for better reliability and convenience. If you're out of luck choosing hosting provider; try to automate as much as possible with scripts and tools such as rsync.

Hey, thanks for the tips and sorry for the late reply.

I managed to get it working nicely on a shared hosting platform, that is actually quite good and flexible to customize to your needs. But yeah, Laravel Forge is next level, very easy to setup your server.
