I've just completed my first full stack web application, and I'm looking for options to host it without any costs. This project was mainly to demonstrate my skills, particularly in CRUD operations. I did some research, but most hosting services seem to have paid plans that I don't really need for this project. Any suggestions for free hosting solutions?

If you’re hosting a full stack app, you might want to consider paid services since they tend to be more reliable. However, for static sites, GitHub Pages or Cloudflare Pages could work great for you. Just keep in mind that full stack apps often need a backend hosting solution too.
Have you looked into Oracle? They have a free tier with decent specs, but it's Oracle, so just know what you're getting into.
You mentioned you’re using the MERN stack, right? For the backend, you could try using Render, but expect that the free tier can be a bit slow. One trick is to set up a cron job to ping your API regularly so it stays active!
For hosting solutions, you might find Railway great for your backend and Vercel for the frontend. They both have free tiers that could work well for you.
