The repo contains examples on how to deploy your React application to Netlify, Now and Heroku.
Each directory is a separate project containing all the necessary code to deploy to each platform and we deploy the same app to the different platforms.
The React app is very basic in nature, it calls an Express.js and/or Lambda Functions API with only one POST
route and one GET
route.
The GET
route returns “Hello from Express” and the POST
route is just one field that when posting it returns “I received your POST request. This is what you sent me: [from input]”.
The app also has client side routing with React Router that navigates to a secondary page and displays a 404 page when we enter a URL that does not exist.
You can see the app below
Upon loading, React calls the Express.js and/or Lambda Function GET
endpoint and displays a message. When submitting the single field form, React calls the Express.js and/or Lambda Function POST
endpoint and displays a message.
