Development

# Start your CRA client
npm start

## Start CRA server, then you can open http://localhost:3001
npx cra-universal start

Production

# Change directory to your project root first, and run:
npx cra-universal build

# This command will build both client and server and put them into `./dist`

Deployment

  1. First, follow the Production guide mentioned above.
  2. Since the bundle used Webpack Node Externals, you need to run npm install --production on the copied /dist, but this time you don't need to install its devDependencies
  3. Use process manager like PM2 to run your server, your run target is ./dist/server/bundle.js
