Blitz Example
This is an example of how to deploy a Blitz.js (opens in a new tab) application to AWS Fargate using Flightcontrol and the flightcontrol.json configuration as code file.
Prerequisites
- Get started with Blitz (opens in a new tab)
- Create a Flightcontrol account (opens in a new tab)
- Create an AWS account (opens in a new tab)

Session Secret Key
You'll need to provide a SESSION_SECRET_KEY environment variable for Blitz Auth (opens in a new tab).
We suggest adding the session secret key as an environment variable in the Flightcontrol dashboard.
Preview Emails
NOTE: You must do one of the following:
-
move
preview-emailfrom devDependencies to dependencies -
OR make the following change in all your “mailers”
- import previewEmail from "preview-email" ... + const previewEmail = (await import("preview-email")).default await previewEmail({
Configuration Options
Flightcontrol supports two different configuration options, the dashboard and the flightcontrol.json file. For an example flightcontrol.json file for Blitz, see below.

- Select a GUI config type
- Select your environment
- Add a service and set your port to 3000
