frontend-example-docker

This project is created to help learn docker configurations for frontend projects.

Prerequisites

Install node.

Install all packages with npm install

Starting in production mode

To build and serve in production mode: npm start This builds the project in dist folder and serves it in port 5000.

You can alternatively build the project with npm build and then serve it in any way you want, for example:

To use a npm package called serve to serve the project in port 5000:

• install: npm install -g serve
• serve: npm serve -s -l 5000 dist

By default the expected path to backend is /api. To manually configure api path run with API_URL=<url> npm start|build

Test that the project is running by going to http://localhost:5000
