This will build the app and run the dev server for Vue and WebPack. The Node express server will launch and WebPack will proxy the calls from the browser to the API in express. It will also prepare it for local debugging.
# build for production with minification
npm run build
# serve on http://localhost:8080
# and run the api on http://localhost:3001
npm run debug
This will build the app and launch via the Node.js express server.
# build for production with minification
npm run build
# run the node server
npm start
Build the image and run container.
