React App on GitHub Pages
Warning
This post is more than a year old. Information may be outdated.
Recently I came across the idea of publishing a React App on GitHub Pages. I can distribute my React App using GitHub, further saving server bandwidth and simplifying the API server structure. I have created a boilerplate for this structure.
Key points
- GitHub has a feature that automatically posts the
docsfolder into a small landing page. - Create-React-App builds its results into a
buildfolder. - So if I can automatically move files from
/buildto/docswhenever I build the app, it would work as if I have set up a CI/CD structure.
Implementation
The yarn build command will replace the docs folder with a newer build of the app.
