Hidden Perspectives Microsite

Microsite code for Hidden Perspectives

Deployment

npm run build creates a build directory with a production build of your app. Set up your favorite HTTP server so that a visitor to your site is served index.html, and requests to static paths like /static/js/main.<hash>.js are served with the contents of the /static/js/main.<hash>.js file.

Static Server

For environments using Node, the easiest way to handle this would be to install serve and let it handle the rest:

npm install -g serve
serve -s build

The last command shown above will serve your static site on the port 5000. Like many of serve’s internal settings, the port can be adjusted using the -p or --port flags.

Run this command to get a full list of the options available:

serve -h

Netlify

To do a manual deploy to Netlify’s CDN:

npm install netlify-cli -g
netlify deploy

Choose build as the path to deploy.

To setup continuous delivery:

With this setup Netlify will build and deploy when you push to git or open a pull request:

1. Start a new netlify project
2. Pick your Git hosting service and select your repository
3. Click Build your site

Support for client-side routing:

To support pushState, make sure to create a public/_redirects file with the following rewrite rules:

/*  /index.html  200

When you build the project, Create React App will place the public folder contents into the build output.

Now

Now offers a zero-configuration single-command deployment. You can use now to deploy your app for free.

1. Install the now command-line tool either via the recommended desktop tool or via node with npm install -g now.

2. Build and export your app by running npm run export.

3. Move into the build directory by running cd out.

4. Run now --name your-project-name from within the build directory. You will see a now.sh URL in your output like this:

   > Ready! https://your-project-name-tpspyhtdtk.now.sh (copied to clipboard)
   

   Paste that URL into your browser when the build is complete, and you will see your deployed app.
