App Platform

At the moment, serving static SPA React app with react router via CDN works as long as the user reaches the app through the root url. If the user reloads a certain current URL, however, it will display a 404. To fix this we can add a request url re-write such that /some/path/ would be replaced by / However adding all those edpoints one by one is impossible, especially if there are url parameters used by that app. Vercel allows this, for example, by specifying rewrites with wildcards { "rewrites": [ {"source": "/(.*)", "destination": "/"} ] } This is not possible in DO, prevents us from using App platform to serve our frontend app via CDN

In case one DO team have two DO projects and DO team decides to split in to two teams, would be nice to have a feature to migrate DO project related resource to a different DO teams.

Hey DigitalOcean Team I’ve been experimenting with hosting small browser-based games on the App Platform — for example, projects similar to Mahjong Shanghai kostenlos , which are lightweight, HTML5-based puzzle games that don’t require heavy backend logic. The deployment process works smoothly, but I’ve noticed that sometimes static assets (like images, tiles, or sound files) load a bit slower when compared to a traditional CDN setup. Would it be possible to have a performance optimization feature specifically designed for lightweight gaming apps — something like auto asset compression, caching, or even edge delivery for small games? This could make DigitalOcean App Platform an even more attractive option for indie devs who create browser games or puzzle apps like Mahjong Shanghai kostenlos. Thanks for all your great work — the platform’s simplicity is awesome! — A game dev who loves clean code, quick deploys, and classic puzzle vibes

It would be great if we could use cloud firewalls to control access to deployed applications using App Platform. I've got some private applications that I would deploy using your PaaS offering immediately if I could firewall it off.

When I create an app on App Platform, DO assigns it a random subdomain at “ ondigitalocean.app ”. I can then define a custom domain for this app too. It would be good be able to block access via the default domain. The use case is that we are using Cloudflare Zero Trust to protect an app, and this works fine except for the fact that the protection can be completely bypassed simply by using the default non-custom domain name.

Need to add a group of users with permission to edit only a few resources. Stuff like user groups, resource groups, RBAC would help.

Some times it could be needed to stop the component (or app) withow destroying it in order to be able to start it again later.Now it's posible to save the spec and deploy a new component but a power on/off option would be more practical in some scenarios.

The scaling of App platform form is restricted to a region. As the deployed project grows and get from traffic from different regions of the world, the app platform deployment does not able to provide fast experience to the users from other region. At least there should be an option to scale your app through different regions apart from horizontal and vertical.
