Program Deployment

Nyvo automatically generates and deploys Solana smart contracts (programs) to the blockchain on behalf of the developer. Under the hood, Nyvo compiles Rust-based programs (e.g. using the Solana BPF toolchain or Anchor framework) and uses Solana's BPF loader to publish them on-chain. Deployment is done via a wallet transaction that uploads the program bytecode to a program account. Nyvo handles the upgrade authority for programs (if making them upgradeable) or finalizes them if no further changes are needed.

Each deploy incurs the standard Solana network fee (base fee of 5000 lamports per signature plus a small per-byte cost for storing the program, which Nyvo funds as part of deployment). The result is a new program ID on Solana that uniquely identifies the dApp’s backend logic.
