React app on Codeanywhere

As of now there is no container available for react app only. So, you can follow these steps to get a ReactJS app running on codeanywhere.com

  • Start a blank container. I used ubuntu 14.04 based blank container.
  • Install node, npm and npm react app generator

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install nodejs

sudo apt-get install npm

npm install -g create-react-app

create-react-app my-react-app

cd my-react-app

npm start

  • You will see in command prompt the development server is run and http://localhost:3000 or similar address is given for accessing it. Replace localhost with your codeanywhere.com container domain followed by the port 3000. That is the public url of your react app. The url will be similar to `http://reactjs-userx12345.codeanyapp.com/`
