javascript - How to deploy a React App on Apache web server

Question

I have created a basic React App from https://www.tutorialspoint.com/reactjs/reactjs_jsx.htm here , I want to run this test code on Apache based server, I know that I need to create a distributable build but I am not able to figure out how to do that and couldnt find clear instructions.

I have seen this post React,js on Apache server but it doesn't have anything more than few guidelines

Answer 1

Firstly, in your react project go to your package.json and adjust this line line of code to match your destination domain address + folder:

"homepage": "https://yourwebsite.com/your_folder_name/",

Secondly, go to terminal in your react project and type:

npm run build

Now, take all files from that newly created build folder and upload them into your_folder_name, with filezilla in subfolder like this:

public_html/your_folder_name

Check in the browser!
