在 Azure 上部署 React + Express

Question

I'm having that problem where I'm trying to deploy Express and React boilerplate app like one app on Azure App Services. Locally everything works normaly, but when I try to deploy the whole thing, I see ":( Application Error " screen. I think it has to do something with the way my "scripts" inside server's package.json are set...(deploying only express server without client files works just fine). Here I'm trying to let Azure execute the build command once the app is deployed and not before that:

"scripts": { "start": "cd client && npm run build && cd../ && node server", "test": "echo something" },

Probably I'm missing something crucial for Azure (I'm a beginner).I've read a lot and followed many tutorials but nothing seems to solve my problem. I'll really appreciate it if someone can give me a hand. Thank you!

"scripts": { "start": "cd client && npm run build && cd ../ && node server", "test": "echo something" }

This script will work if you already have all the modules your app needed, but if you don't have the modules, you need to install them first.

However, it is recommended that you build the client locally or use pipline to deploy the build folder to azure.
