Check out an explanation of the code and the live site here.

Notes on developing and deploying this app

Netlify Setup

0. Install dependencies

npm i

1. Install the Netlify CLI:

npm i -g netlify-cli

If you have previously installed the Netlify CLI, you should update it to the latest version:

npm i -g netlify-cli@latest

2. Sign up and log in to Netlify:

netlify login

3. Create a new site:

netlify init

Development

The Netlify CLI starts your app in development mode, rebuilding assets on file changes.

npm run dev

Open up http://localhost:3000, and you should be ready to go!

Deployment

There are two ways to deploy your app to Netlify, you can either link your app to your git repo and have it auto deploy changes to Netlify, or you can deploy your app manually. If you've followed the setup instructions already, all you need to do is run this:

npm run build
# preview deployment
netlify deploy

# production deployment
netlify deploy --prod
