Why is react .net core not serving my SPA files?? [Answered]
I have been trying to do a very simple thing for a very long time and could really use some help. I have a react app that is compiled and ready to go. If I were to access it at a certain URL on my server, it would work as a standalone project. To make deployments easier I wanted to start including it with its API project written in C#. My god. What a frustrating disaster.
What I want SHOULD be easy.
When request path starts with "/demo", show this SPA.
When request path starts with "/api", show the API.
Whene deployed, the entire app will be at /projects/pixelstacker/. So the HTML and JS all reference paths like, "/projects/pixelstacker/demo/assets/css/somefoo.css"
But in the c# side the request path would look like "/demo/assets/css/somefoo.css" thanks to how nginx does its proxying.
Please help.
