Deploying a React.js app to Netlify using GitHub provides a seamless workflow for hosting and managing your web application. In this guide, we’ll walk through the steps to deploy your React.js app to Netlify, taking advantage of the powerful integration with GitHub.
To deploy a React.js app to Netlify using GitHub in 2023, you can follow these steps:
- Create a React App, if you dont have one ready with you to deploy. To create a React App you can use the Create React App tool to quickly set up a new React project. Check the command below :
npx create -react-app your_app_name
2. Once your React app is created you can view your app locally using the command.
cd your_app_name
npm start
3. Once you are done looking at your project and are now ready to deploy it. Next step that comes is to push your code to github. Here are the steps to do it :
- Set up a GitHub repository: Create a new repository on GitHub. After that, run these commands in your terminal.
echo "# abc" >> README.md
git init
git add README.md
git commit -m "first commit"
git branch -M main
git remote add origin yout_repository_link
git push -u origin main
- After you run all these commands, your code is pushed over github, now the next step is to host your site on Netlify.
4. Connect your GitHub repository to Netlify: Go to the Netlify website (https://www.netlify.com/) and sign up for an account if you don’t have one already. Once you’re signed in, click on the “New site from Git” button to create a new site. Select GitHub as your Git provider and authorize Netlify to access your GitHub repositories.
- Select your GitHub repository: Netlify will present you with a list of your GitHub repositories. Choose the repository that contains your React.js app.
- Click on the “Deploy site” button. Netlify will start the initial build process, which will compile your React.js app and deploy it to a unique URL.
- Once the build process is complete, Netlify will provide you with a URL where your React.js app is deployed. You can visit this URL to see your app live on the internet.
5. Netlify can automatically deploy your app whenever you push changes to your GitHub repository. By default, Netlify uses continuous deployment, so you don’t have to manually trigger builds for every change. Whenever you push changes to your repository, Netlify will automatically build and deploy the updated version of your React.js app.
That’s it! Your React.js app should now be successfully deployed to Netlify using GitHub in 2023.
