Getting Started with Anodes
Welcome to Anodes. We provide simple and reliable hosting for developers who want to focus on their code, not infrastructure complexity. This guide will walk you through creating, managing, renewing, and canceling your servers.
Creating an Account
Before you can deploy any infrastructure, you need an Anodes identity. Your account is tied to your Discord profile for seamless authentication.
Visit Registration
Navigate to register.anodes.dev or click the Register button on our main navbar.
Discord OAuth
Log in with your Discord account to verify your identity. This is the only way to authenticate.
Creating a Server
Once your account is ready, you can deploy your first server directly from our custom dashboard.
Access Dashboard
Head over to dash.anodes.dev and log in.
Configure Plan
Click New Server and select the plan that fits your project needs.
Checkout
Complete your payment securely through Stripe. Your server will appear in your dashboard instantly.
Claiming Free Plan
We believe in supporting developers just starting out. You can claim a free server to test our platform.
- Open the dashboard and click New Server.
- Select the Free plan from the list.
- Complete the creation process - no credit card required.
Management
Controlling your infrastructure is simple. From the dashboard, you have full control over your billing and panel access.
Open Panel
Directs you to the Pterodactyl Panel where you manage files, logs, and server states.
Cancelation
Stops future monthly payments. Your server stays online until the current period ends.
Renew & Cancel
Renewing a Server
If your server is nearing its expiration date, simply locate it in the dashboard and click Renew. This extends your active period immediately.
Canceling a Server
Navigate to Manage on your server and select Cancel Subscription. This prevents future billing. You can still use the server until your term expires.

Console
Real-time log output and direct command input for your application.
Files
Full web-based file manager to upload, edit, and delete your code.
