Read the tech stack as text▾
Overview: A performance-conscious developer platform that pairs server-rendered Marko with a themed React component system, layered caching, and product analytics.
What stands out
- Uses Marko instead of a mainstream React framework for server-rendered pages, signaling lightweight performance priorities.
- Employs both Varnish and Envoy, indicating a sophisticated multi-tier edge and service proxy architecture.
- Adopts PostHog for product analytics, aligning with a self-serve, data-driven SaaS growth model.
Technologies northflank.com uses
- Varnish — Reverse proxy cache accelerating page delivery and reducing backend load.
- Express — Node.js backend framework serving web and API routes for the platform.
- React — UI library for interactive client-side components.
- PostHog — Product analytics tracking user behavior to optimize onboarding and subscription conversion.
- Marko — Server-rendered UI for fast, SEO-friendly marketing and docs pages, appealing to developer users.
- Signals — Fine-grained reactive state management for efficient UI updates and interactivity.
- Envoy — Service proxy handling traffic routing and resilience across internal services.
- Prism — Syntax highlighting for code examples in documentation and developer content.
- HeroUI — Accessible React component library providing a polished, modern UI foundation.
- Node.js — Runtime for backend services and build tooling.
- reCAPTCHA — Bot protection on signup and contact forms.
- PHP — Legacy or CMS-driven parts of the site, such as blog or landing pages.
- HSTS — Enforces HTTPS connections for security.
- styled-components — CSS-in-JS styling for consistent, themeable React component design.
- Open Graph — Metadata for rich social sharing previews.
How these technologies work together
- Express integrates with Marko — Marko templates render within Express routes to deliver HTML, minimizing client-side JavaScript.
- Marko works alongside Prism — Prism highlights syntax within Marko-rendered docs, making API references more readable for developers.
- React integrates with Signals — Signals manage fine-grained reactivity in React components, improving performance for dynamic dashboards.
- Express integrates with Varnish — Varnish caches responses from Express to accelerate page loads and reduce origin traffic.
- PostHog integrates with React — PostHog captures user events from React UI, enabling funnel analysis and feature adoption tracking.
- Envoy integrates with Express — Envoy routes and load-balances requests to Express services, adding resilience and observability.

How to fix Northflank not working
Northflank is a developer platform for deploying applications, databases, jobs and AI workloads. Most problems come from a build, a deployment setting, a secret or network setting, or the platform itself. The status page tells you first whether Northflank has an incident, so check it early. Then choose the symptom that matches yours.
Jump to what you are seeing
Website Down
The Northflank website or dashboard does not load for you.
- Open the page in a private window and on another network.
- Check status.northflank.com for an active incident.
- If your deployed services still respond, the problem is probably the dashboard only.
Deployment Failed
A deployment does not start or stops with an error.
- Open the deployment logs and read the first error, since later errors often follow from it.
- Check the build succeeded and that the image or artifact it produced exists.
- Check that the environment variables and secrets the service needs are set. Do not paste secret values into a chat or ticket.
- Redeploy after the fix. If it fails with an error on Northflank's side, check the status page.
Dashboard Error
The dashboard shows an error or a blank screen for a project or service.
- Reload the page in a private window with extensions turned off.
- Check your user role allows the project you are opening.
- If only one service fails, note its name and the time you saw the error.
Build Issues
A build fails, or takes far longer than before. A dependency, a build file or a missing setting is usually the cause.
- Read the build log for the first error. The earliest error normally names the cause.
- Check the build file and dependency versions have not changed unexpectedly.
- Check the repository is connected and the branch you chose exists.
- If the build hangs with no error, retry it once, then check the status page.
Database Error
A database cannot be reached, or it returns errors when your app connects.
- Check the database shows as running in the dashboard.
- Check the connection details your app uses, such as host, port and password, match the database's current values.
- Check the number of open connections. A full pool refuses new ones, so make sure your app closes its connections.
- If the database is down for everyone, check the status page and contact support with the database name and the time.
API Down
Calls to the Northflank API fail or time out.
- Check the status code. A 401 or 403 means the token or permission is wrong, a 429 means too many calls, and a 5xx means a platform-side problem.
- Confirm the API token has not been revoked or changed.
- Retry with a growing delay.
- Check status.northflank.com if several calls fail together.
Login Failed
Sign-in to Northflank is refused. Teams may use a company login, so the route matters.
- Use the sign-in route your team set up, such as a company login.
- If the message says the password is wrong, reset it and check spam.
- Ask your team owner to confirm your user is in the right team.
CLI Error
The command line tool fails or reports an error when you run a command.
- Update the command line tool to the latest version.
- Check you are logged in to the right account and project from the command line.
- Run the command again and copy the full error text, not only the last line.
- Check the same service works from the dashboard, to see whether the problem is the tool or the service.
Still not working?
If it still does not work, contact Northflank support through the help option in the dashboard or on northflank.com. Have your team and project names, the service or database name, the exact error text, and the time it started with your time zone. Live incident updates are on status.northflank.com.
Most deployment problems come from a build error, a setting or a secret, and they usually clear once that one item is corrected. The status page shows live platform incidents, so you can see whether a problem is outside your own services.
