Deploy React.js web apps generated with create-react-app.

Automates deployment with the built-in tooling and serves it up via Nginx.

• Node.js
• create-react-app
  • npm install -g create-react-app

create-react-app my-app
cd my-app

git init

Requires the command-line tools & a free account from Heroku.

heroku create -b https://github.com/mars/create-react-app-buildpack.git

git add .
git commit -m "react-create-app on Heroku"
git push heroku master

heroku open

Work with your app locally using npm start. See: create-react-app docs

Then, commit & deploy ♻️

The web server may be configured via the static buildpack.

The default config, if static.json does not already exist, is:

{ "root": "build/" }

To support clean URLs with React Router (not included), configure with HTML5 Push State from Getting Started with Single Page Apps on Heroku.
