How To Deploy a React App on GitHub Pages (Two Different Ways)

Описание: Let's learn how to deploy a React application on GitHub Pages!

GitHub Pages is a free static site hosting service provided by GitHub. Using it however can be a little confusing when working with a project that requires a build step for deployment (React, Angular, Vue, etc). In this video, we'll walk you through two of the most common ways to deploy your React application to GitHub Pages.

When working with GitHub Pages, there are two main ways to deploy a React based project:

1. Deploy from a Branch: This method involves using a package called "gh-pages" to publish our build output to a special branch on GitHub called "gh-pages". It's quick and straightforward, and perfect for smaller projects.

2. Deploy from GitHub Actions: This method uses GitHub Actions to automate our deployment process through the use of a custom action. This option is more robust, and can help ensure your site is always up-to-date with the latest changes.

We will cover both deployment methods in this video. If you found this video helpful, please give it a thumbs up 👍 and consider subscribing for more web development tutorials!
