Replace pnpm-lock.yaml with package-lock.json. allowBuilds for esbuild becomes package.json#allowScripts. The Dockerfile installs with npm ci --omit=dev and no longer prepares pnpm through corepack; .npmrc keeps engine-strict, which npm honours natively. minimumReleaseAgeExclude is dropped rather than translated: pnpm's minimumReleaseAge was never set, so the 30-entry exclusion list had nothing to exclude from. Direct dependency versions resolve identically to the pnpm lockfile.

Deployment
Recommendation
Use a self-hosted/container runtime for v1. Static-only hosts are not enough
because /api/gif must render GIF bytes on the server with Remotion.
Good first targets:
- Coolify Docker app
- Fly.io
- Railway
- Render
- VPS with Docker
- Google Cloud Run generic container
Avoid for v1:
- Cloudflare Workers/Pages
- pure static Vercel/Netlify deploys
Runtime
Required env vars:
PORT=3000
HOST=0.0.0.0
MAX_CONCURRENT_RENDERS=1
RENDER_TIMEOUT_MS=15000
MAX_OPTIONS=32
MAX_OPTION_CHARS=40
API_TOKEN=change-me
compose.yml forwards these values from the shell with ${VAR:-default}
fallbacks, so unset or empty shell variables use the defaults above.
Start with 1-2 vCPU and 1-2 GB RAM. Increase only after render benchmarks show the service is CPU-bound or concurrency-limited.
Local non-Docker render smoke requires Chrome Headless Shell shared libraries,
including libnspr4 and libnss3. Prefer Docker for consistent verification.
The Docker image runs npm run browser:ensure during build so production requests
do not need to download Chrome Headless Shell on first render.
RENDER_TIMEOUT_MS is a total render timeout. Values below 7000 are raised to
7000 because Remotion's browser timeout has that minimum.
Set API_TOKEN for every production deployment. The server refuses to start
with NODE_ENV=production unless the token is configured.
