React JS Deployment in IIS Server

When it comes to deploying a React JS application, developers often look for the best hosting options available. One popular choice is the Internet Information Services (IIS) server, which is a web server created by Microsoft. In this article, we will discuss how to host a React JS application on an IIS server.

Hosting React in IIS Server

Before we start the deployment process, it is important to ensure that you have Node.js and npm installed on your system. Node.js is required to run the React JS application, and npm is used to manage the project’s dependencies.

Once you have Node.js and npm installed, you can follow these steps to deploy your React JS application on an IIS server:

  1. Build your React JS application: Before deploying your application, you need to create a production build. This can be done using the npm run build command, which will generate a build folder containing optimized, production-ready assets.
  2. Configure IIS: Open the IIS Manager and create a new website for your React JS application. Set the physical path to the build folder generated in the previous step.
  3. Set up URL Rewrite: To ensure that your React JS application works correctly with client-side routing, you need to set up URL Rewrite rules in IIS. This can be done by adding a web.config file to the root of your application with the necessary rewrite rules.
  4. Test your application: Once everything is set up, you can test your React JS application by navigating to the URL of the website you created in IIS. If everything is configured correctly, your application should be up and running.

It is important to note that hosting a React JS application on an IIS server may require some additional configurations, depending on the specific requirements of your application. However, following the steps outlined above should give you a solid starting point for deploying your React JS application on an IIS server.

In conclusion, hosting a React JS application on an IIS server can be a straightforward process if you follow the right steps. With the proper configuration and setup, you can easily deploy your React JS application and make it accessible to users through the IIS server.
