How to get a proper production build with svelte-kit? - sveltekit

Im trying out svelte-kit, and it looks promising. However, I get confused when I run npm run build. I used to get a "dist" folder with a index.html file + som javascript that I could just deploy to a web server. With svelte-kit, I get a .svelte-kit folder with lot of strange files within, but no index.html. Am I missing something?

Vercel deployment failure

i was trying to publish my website via Vercel but somehow i couldn't...
I have the api url and token in index.js in consts folder.
I've tried to put api info in the .env file but i couldn't do that either.
Here is my files and the Vercel's error
I would be really happy if i use some help. Thank you.
My files
What vercel says
Keep all your .js files inside src folder.
Looking at your problem ,it looks like your index.js falls outside src folder. Try placing it directly in your src folder like your App.js, it should work fine.
Also, Run npm run build in your VS Code terminal before deploying it.

React web-page won't display on server

I have been trying to deploy my create-react-app on a server but have been unable to do so. I created a homepage field in the package.json as instructed and set it to the https://... domain address. Then I ran npm run build and created the build file. I am finding resources sparse online, instructing me what to do after. Running npm start just runs from the root directory, not displaying anything. The source shows and index.html file which paths are stuck at the root. I am wondering what I need to do to run/deploy the build(production). I have tried downloading the npm package serve, but this seems to do the same as npm run, if not worse. I feel like I am only moving in the opposite direction, and would love some assistance. Thank you.
You need to run npm build.
This creates files in the build folder.
These files you then need to take and put them in a folder that is served by a web server.
You can use Nginx, Apache, IIS or any other production ready web server.
You have an IT department, ask them where exactly you need to put your files.

building with Parceljs and React?

How can I get Parceljs to work with react? I'm using their example from their repo but it wont work.
https://github.com/parcel-bundler/examples
After I run 'npm start' it works and renders the page on localhost as expected but it will not work when I click the outputted file in /dist. So the page is just blank when I try to load it from dist/index.html. I also tried the production command from their website so it would stop watching the files but that also resulted in the dist folder loading a blank page.
How can I do this? Any help would be great. Essentially I want to be able to access the buddled files without localhost.
Thank you.
You're running the index files locally and the index.html is expecting the the css file and the js file to be at the root. When you're opening your file locally it is trying to find under C://
To get around this issue you have to edit the index.html unfortunately after you have compiled it. Here are three ways to get over the issue, method three focuses on fixing your issue but I would recommend methods one and two.
Method One
Install http-server by running npm install -g http-server
Go to your project dist folder via the terminal / cmd
Type http-server
Your project will open up in your default web browser
Method Two
Upload your application to a web server
Your application should run
Method Three (Not recommended)
Add the NPM script "production": "parcel build index.html"
Run production build by cd to your project and type npm run production
Go into your dist folder and open up the index.html in an editor
Edit the css file path from href="/main.--------.css" to href="./main.--------.css">
Edit the js file path from src="/main.--------.js" to href="./main.--------.js">
(NOTE: The React Add-on will not detect React when it is being opened locally, but the application will work fine.)

React app on Apache Server

I am trying to deploy this react project https://github.com/tahnik/react-expressjs
and use apache server for static file. The example that I know that is working is on Angular, on angular we just run ng build --prod and this will create a dist folder where there is an index.html. On apache, we just serve the dist folder. But here we use React with webpack that not contain dist folder with an index.html so I don't know how to do that on your project.
PS : Sorry for my english, it's not my native language
Thanks
There is no index.html because it is a server side rendered application. In the repository you posted, the whole project is meant to be running as a server side application, there is no index.html file. Everything is served from express as you can see here.
When you run npm run build:client it just creates the js/css files. You would need to:
Create your own html and add css and js to it.
Add html-webpack-plugin to generate the html with all the css/js files already on it.
If you don't want to do that. You simply run npm start after your npm run build and the server will start. now you need to proxy from apache to this addr:port.

Can I deploy react.js web app to a share hosting?

I am wondering if it is possible to deploy react.js web app that I've built to a share hosting site that does not have node.js installed?
I use webpack to build the application and it creates normal html, js, css file. I uploaded the static folder that includes all those html, js(bundle.js) and css files, but when I request the site, the server reply with 404 bundle.js not found response.
Use npm run build, you should get a folder with the index html file inside that will run your app. Try this with xampp first before you actually deploy to your server.
Here is everything step by step
npm run build
or
yarn run build
it will generate a build folder that looks like this:
Copy everything and move it to the htdocs in xampp or ftp upload the directory to the public_html file in your hosting
Yes you sure can put react on a shared hosting provider.
Seeing as you're getting a 404 error (not found), you are probably referencing your react file/bundle incorrectly. It might not even be named bundle.js if you're using a boilerplate to create your application.
Can you give more information? What does your index.html file look like? What does your directory structure look like? If you are able to post these files I can tell you what the issue is.
Update:
The answer below should be accepted. (Although this would assume that you have the ability to make a build which you have not verified or not.)
Make a build using the build command through whatever boilerplate you used. Deploy those files on your shared hosting server. Make sure that index.html is at the root of where your server is expecting the root to be and your app should be live.
For deploying a react app on a shared hosting you need to create a production build. Production build is a pack of all your react code and its dependencies.
in most shared hosting we put our site/app inside a public_html directory so if we hit www.yourdomain.com it serves the code from public_html directory.
so if your react app is ready to go, edit your package.json file add a new key value:
"homepage":"http://yourdomain.com"
then create a build using following command:
npm run build
after running the command you will see a new directory named build in your app root. It will contain js and css for the app and a index.html file. You need to upload all the content inside build directory to public_html directory, and that's all, go to your domain and your app will be working just fine.
