...
notice, you need client and server runs concurrently in different terminal session, in order to make them talk to each other
$ cd client // go to client folder
$ yarn # or npm i // npm install packages
$ npm run dev // run it locally
// deployment for client app
$ npm run build // this will compile the react code using webpack and generate a folder called docs in the root level
$ npm run start // this will run the files in docs, this behavior is exactly the same how gh-pages will run your static site
run the script at the first level:
(You need to add a JWT_SECRET in .env to connect to MongoDB)
// in the root level
$ cd server
$ echo "JWT_SECRET=YOUR_JWT_SECRET" >> src/.env
$ cd server // go to server folder
$ npm i // npm install packages
$ npm run dev // run it locally
$ npm run build // this will build the server code to es5 js codes and generate a dist file
Deploy Server to Heroku
$ npm i -g heroku
$ heroku login
...
$ heroku create
$ npm run heroku:add <your-super-amazing-heroku-app>
// remember to run this command in the root level, not the server level, so if you follow the documentation along, you may need to do `cd ..`
$ pwd
/Users/<your-name>/mern
$ npm run deploy:heroku
if using webpack: remember to update the file of client/webpack.prod.js
