Glide Publishing Platform is pleased to announce the latest partnership aimed at giving our customers the best tools to launch websites and applications quicker and with less hassle.

From today users of Vercel can access the Glide Next.js starter app from the Vercel Template marketplace.

The starter app allows deployment to a Vercel account with a range of powerful and useful features powered by GPP including routing, page rendering, and SEO. 

It cuts significant time and requirement for development resource from the task of launching a site powered by GPP, and delivered by Vercel.

Nedim Dedic, CTO of Glide Publishing Platform, said: “Vercel is the ideal platform for hosting Next-js web applications. It should be – the people behind Vercel created Next.js and have set the standard for utilising the framework.

“It is a real time-saver to handle things like server configurations, deployment, scaling, and website performance and the starter app gives Vercel users a very advantageous route to quickly leverage a host of pre-configured GPP components for editorial use cases, such as articles, galleries, image management, files, page structure and templates."
