Exploring Hosting Alternatives: Replit Limitations and Render's Offerings Replit has limited free hosting for Python and Node.js apps, prompting the search for alternatives. Render offers a solution with 750 hours of monthly usage but requires GitHub or GitLab accounts to deploy applications. Users must prepare their scripts in advance, including setting environment variables before deployment.
Step-by-Step Deployment: From Discord Bots to Telegram Bots To host a Discord bot on Node.js using Render, upload your code to GitHub or GitLab and configure necessary files like index.js and package.json. After creating a web service on Render with appropriate settings (runtime type, build command), you can monitor its uptime through services like Uptime Robot. For Python Telegram bots, similar steps apply—ensure all dependencies are listed in requirements.txt while configuring environment variables correctly during setup.
