In this example, want to run a react application I created and publish it to the web using my domain, or maybe I just want to run it on my locals server using XAMPP apachefriends for example without a node.js server but an apache server running PHP? So for this example below, I have XAMPP installed and I want to run my react application into the following url:
http://localhost/REACT/TESTING/reactapp/build/
First, lets create a blank application in windows folder where I have xampp installed and open a terminal into the TESTING folder:
F:\apachefriends\xampp\htdocs\REACT\TESTING
Command to create the new app:
$ npx create-react-app reactapp
Next, cd into the newly created app:
$ cd reactapp
OPTIONAL: You can open the new application in Visual Code
$ code .
Open the package.json file and add the following property after "name"
Now we can make our build:
$ npm run build
Open the application in your browser:
http://localhost/REACT/TESTING/reactapp/build/
