I've been trying to host my next13 project following the same process as next12 by creating a server.js file as per docs and creating a node.js app. However, the website just returns empty page with no errors at all. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Have you tried just doing a static export of your project and deploying the out directory?

Are you using the app router? If you are then the only option you have is to host your app on Vercel until they implement support for a custom server for the app router.
