How can I deploy this on railway.app? #46

Have you tried?

Based on reading The Basics: Services and Deployments: Start Command, it would seem that deployment involves simply telling them the URL for a public git repo (for example) and their platform should do the rest: recoginize that it's a Node.js app, provision the correct runtime, obtain the start command from package.json.

Based on reading Pricing, it would cost $0.10/GB of data sent from proxy to user; not clear whether there's any cost for the data between proxy and origin server. On the upside for testing, anyone can sign up for a free account without providing any credit card info.. and get $5 of credit to kick the tires.

I can tell you that I have deployed this server on Render.com.. it works great and the process couldn't be any easier.

Also, their free tier includes (among many other things) 100GB of exit bandwidth per month, and all inbound bandwidth is free. So, for comparison, the same 100GB would cost you $15/month at railway ($5 for a "hobby" plan and $10 for the monthly bandwidth).
