Deploy a store in 15 minutes: Telegram Mini App or desktop SSH
The guide’s quick start path: license → VPS → deploy → admin. Mini App is ~5 minutes; desktop deployer ~8–20. A second shop on the same server is from ~15 minutes when you change format, theme, or domain.
What this is
Two install channels with the same result: Docker + nginx + license + first superuser. Shop works on the IP before the domain is attached.
How it works in NitroCart
- Mini App: IP, SSH, optional admin path and credentials.
- Desktop: server list, optional IP allowlist, Let's Encrypt on domain.
- Server: clean Ubuntu 22.04/24.04, no control panel.
- After install: Engine settings → License = VALID.
Who it is for
- First-time operators who want Telegram-only flow.
- Teams with several VPS who prefer desktop + SSL tab.
- Anyone who needs a live URL the same day.
Workflow
- Buy license (.txt file).
- Rent VPS, open SSH.
- Run Mini App or desktop deploy.
- Log in to admin (non-default path).
- Cloudflare A record → test order.
FAQ
SSL on IP in Mini App?
No. Use Cloudflare on domain or desktop Let's Encrypt.
Wrong license after deploy?
Engine settings → License → upload your .txt.
Must wait for domain?
No. Store sells on IP immediately.
Next: desktop ssh store deployer, cloudflare subdomain switch store, launch test store this afternoon.
