You can handle the migration like any other web application. The easiest method is to transfer everything via SSH, but basics are this:

Create a new database on the new server hosting.
Import all Flarum tables to that database.
Copy all files to the new server.
Update the config.php file with the new database name, user, password
Point the DNS for your domain to the new server

It actually worked, I was afraid to get some problems because of composer stuff.
Thanks.

Using Composer to manage is not a good method
