How do I upload my react app to a web host?

Question

I have created a react js app which works fine when I run it on local server:3000. I need to run it from the web, have signed up to Heroku, but am now not sure how to do this...

Please help.

Answer 1

An alternative from heroku: Netlify. You can create a github repository, push your project in there, then create an account in netlify and upload your project directly from your repository. This is by far the easiest option.

Answer 2

You can use

npm run build

which will create the build files in the build directory. after that, you can upload the files from the build directory to Heroku / any hosting sites.
