Can someone please help me in understanding how the Google app engine actually works with Wordpress?
I have successfully deployed a project which uses wordpress - all my media files, and plugins work, I uploaded my DB with the correct paths - what I want to understand is that when I press deploy, where does the project actually deploy? If I want to modify a file in the installation on google, how do I do that? To sum it up, how does it work behind the scenes?

I want to make a book site with next.js. My site needs to be updated and add products every day. I want to know now if it is appropriate to make this site with next.js?
Now, my website is complete and I ran it with next.js, my website is with node.js, and now every product that I add, I have to go and get a build from the next.js project and upload it to the host, and is this a difficult job? If anyone has a better way, I would be grateful if they could help
Look at this Showcase on next.js official website. It's powerful enough to make any kind of dynamic website. You need to use getServerSideProps with the database of your choice. If you are using Static HTML Export you have to rebuild and upload it again whenever you make any changes.
There's also a lot of options to automate next.js deployment, Best option for your use case is to use services like Digital Ocean App Platform so whenever you push some changes to git repo it automatically rebuild and update your site with fresh content.
So I am trying to customize my already running website via custom code
for better user experience etc.
I see a lot of people developing for WordPress via the code editor
and I simply can't find any information on how I can access my website
via a code editor and customize it with customer HTML, CSS, and javascript (or react.js)
and of course, PHP if necessary.
Could anyone please help me where I can find that information?
I would be very grateful!
Not sure exactly what you are looking for, but I go to CPanel on my host and open File Manager. Scroll down to the public_html folder and the web site below that. Select a PHP file and click Edit. Beware, though, that updating the theme will wipe out any changes when taking this approach.
I am a JavaScript developer now working with WordPress/WooCommerce as a data manager. Only tech guy on site. Anyways, we have a folder for brand images that I can access through WP File Manager. I uploaded a new image by over writing the old one. A brand we sell changed their logo. I thought the change would be reflected once our caching updated. Other changes did update and I have access to when our search service cache updates. No changes. Now I don't yet have access to the actual server - only the WP Dashboard. My question is what needs to happen before this change occurs? Normally I would be using git and have full access to my linux server but that really isnt my role here. Just curious how WP File Manager works. Thanks.
I want to redeploy my project, but I lost the link that takes me to my galaxy dashboard to check my domain. (along with the redeployment command)
I tried to search for the link online but unfortunately I had no luck.
I didn't know I would face difficulties in finding the link, otherwise I would have saved it.
How can I find the link?

I realised that, according to the Google Cloud documentation, unfortunately running wordpress on google app engines does provide any core FTP services!!
Thus if I want to update any new Wordpress themes/plugins onto my Google App Engine each time I add/remove new code, how am I supposed to update them on Google App Engine if there's no FTP service available?!
Also would the gsutil update function work? Will it behave the same thing as I would do upload/download wordpress themes/plugin as I do use the WP Admin screen.
My only concern for the above approach is that I have my local wordpress that's pointed to this URL localhost thus I might worry that when I upload my local copy, this will overwrite the site url of my google app engine account!! Is that case? I need some confirmation!
There's no FTP, the way you upload changes to App Engine is through the appcfg.py utility (or using the graphical launcher tool). This will update all the code in your application, including any plugins or themes you may have installed.
However it will not update the database, which usually means that content and settings that you have running will not change. Just the themes and modules.
Finally, App Engine has a neat feature called Versions, which allows you to run multiple copies of your Wordpress code simultaneously (they share the same database) under different URLs. Each version gets a URL like v2.myblog.appspot.com So if you update your code, do it to a seperate version, check that it works, then if you are happy with it, make it the default version.

First there is no FTP service in AppEngine.
1-You can use CloudStrage for upload by default plugin that is Google Cloud Storage plugin.
2-Enter the GCS bucket name [YOUR_PROJECT_ID] .appspot.com that you changed to ACL
2.5- Before 2, Change principal to Allusers default bucket [YOUR_PROJECT_ID] .appspot.com
3- If your region is correct that is CloudSQL, GCStrage,
Place your theme under projects> wordperss > theme and deploy it.
You can use your theme in App Engine
