create-react-app npm run build command

Question

I have a built a small React application with create-react-app, and it runs fine from the local server after running npm start. OK so far.

Answer 1

you can't run the production build by clicking on index.html, you have to modify your script like bellow.

"scripts": {
    "start": "react-scripts start",
    "build": "react-scripts build",
    "deploy": "serve -s build"
  }

after running npm run-script build, run npm run-script deploy, you will get some thing like this, this is where you can load your production build.

npm install -g serve before run npm run-script deploy.
