Terms and conditions.

This free version of mist-cloud is provided without warranties or guarantees. You may not use any part of mist-cloud to commit any crime, including but not limited to storing illegal material, sharing material without proper rights, and denial of service attacks. We reserve the right to limit or deny access to any account without warning, if we suspect they are acting in bad-faith or for any other reason.

We're all here to have fun and play with cool tech, so let's be respectful of others.

You need Git.

mist-cloud has two account types:

1. A quick account (this) can deploy services to mist-cloud using Git. These accounts are great for small projects and can be converted to power accounts later.
2. A power account uses the mist-cli and also Git. These accounts offer greater control in terms of security and organization.

In any case, you need Git, so if you don't have it you can get it here: https://git-scm.com/downloads

We need your public key.

mist-cloud does not use passwords, instead we use digital fingerprints called SSH to identify users. These are both more secure and less of a hassle.

1. Open Git Bash
2. Run the command
   Generate a public-private key pair using rsa
   : ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -f ~/.ssh/mist-cloud
3. Run the command
   Tells your computer to use the mist-cloud key for mist-cloud commands
   :

   echo "
   Host api.mist-cloud.io
       User mist
       HostName api.mist-cloud.io
       PreferredAuthentications publickey
       IdentityFile ~/.ssh/mist-cloud" >> ~/.ssh/config

4. Run the command
   Fetch the contents of the file mist-cloud.pub
   : cat ~/.ssh/mist-cloud.pub
5. Use the cursor to select and copy the output

Please paste your public key here:

Do you want to name your project?

We know that naming is one of the hardest things in tech, so don't panic. This name is primarily used if you want to collaborate with others.

Note: You cannot change it later, but you can easily create new projects/organizations any time.

Do you want us to save your work?

Accounts without an email are temporary and will be terminated automatically after some time. If you provide an email we will notify you, if you need to take any actions to protect your account. You can attach an email later, provided the project has not been deleted.

You're all set!

When you click the button below we'll set up your account, so in a few moments you can start deploying code to the cloud. Just one more thing, a message from the CEO:

Thank you, for giving our platform a shot.

Here at mist-cloud, we care deeply about developer- and user experience. Keep in mind, this is bleeding edge technology, so when you get stuck or run into errors please don't hesitate to reach out on our Discord. Here, you can talk directly with the people who build the platform, and we want to help!

Welcome to mist-cloud!

/ Christian Clausen
