Move a project from Glitch to Coolify

We earn commissions when you shop through the links below.

Coolify runs a Git repository on a server you control. It does not open a Glitch project, and the Glitch download window closed with 2025.

How long: A day for one app you already have in Git. No path at all if the code was never downloaded.

Take it out

  1. Step 1

    Use the copy you already saved

    Glitch's May 22, 2025 post says the dashboard, including code downloads, stayed up through the end of 2025. This guide was checked on November 2, 2026. If the project is not in a Git repository or a zip you saved, Coolify cannot fetch it from Glitch.

  2. Step 2

    Write down the environment

    Copy any keys, the start command, and the port the app listened on. Coolify has an environment-variable screen. It will not remember Glitch's panel for you.

Put it in

  1. Step 1

    Put the code in Git

    Coolify deploys from Git or a Dockerfile. Push the project to a repository you control. A Glitch remix link is not a source Coolify can clone.

  2. Step 2

    Deploy it on a server you run

    Install Coolify, connect the repository, and set the domain. Coolify's docs cover domains, HTTPS, and environment variables for the build and the running container. This guide did not click through a deploy.

  3. Step 3

    Point the old URL if you still have a redirect

    The May 22, 2025 post says redirects set up before December 31, 2025 would stay active at least through the end of 2026. This guide did not request a live project subdomain. If a redirect still answers, aim it at the new domain. If it does not, update the links yourself.

What you lose

  • The browser editor and the remix button

    Coolify does not edit the project in a browser and does not copy someone else's Glitch in one click. The code is yours to change in a normal editor.

  • Projects you never downloaded

    The download promise in the shutdown post ended with 2025. There is no later archive this guide can send you to.

  • Glitch Pro

    The same post says new Pro subscriptions stopped on May 22, 2025, and existing ones ran until July 8, 2025. Always-on from that plan does not transfer. The app stays up only while your server stays up.

One repository, one server, one domain. Leave the remix behind.
