I'm trying to deploy a create-react-app project but the build fails. First it failed with "yarn run build" and then I set "npm run build" as the command and that also failed.

These commands work fine locally.

Mind sharing your build logs?

Its a static app

Mind downloading the logs using the link I gave you?

#

I don't want to use that link bro, sorry. I don't know what it is and how it works

#

I'll copy the entire logfile, one sec

looks to me like eslint errors, you need to fix those to deploy your app
if you don't want to bother fixing the errors then you can set CI to false in your service variables

Thanks bud. I did not realize that eslint errors would prevent deploying, first time deploying SPA. Thank you!

No problem 🙂

Just one more quick question - for static SPA, am i supposed to deploy to Railway or use a static site service?

old ibex Mar 12, 2024, 2:21 PM

#

either could work, although I would personally use Railway ( definitely biased though )

You can deploy to railway but u will need something to serve that static file

old ibex Mar 12, 2024, 2:22 PM

#

Nixpacks can actually serve static files, you just throw a Staticfile file in your project
https://nixpacks.com/docs/providers/staticfile

Although to be clear, for SPA apps like this one, you'd want to go to Brody's create-react-app-starter repo and copy the Caddyfile and nixpacks.toml file into yours

If it's simply a static website.. i'd throw a CDN in front of Railway personally (like Cloudflare for example), but not necessary 🙂
