✅ Trouble publishing .NET Core Web backend with React.js Frontend
I'm running into some issues building my .net core web api with react frontend. Building and running in development works fine, but I can't seem to create a prod build.
Here's what I've done so far:
On VS Code I run "dotnet publish -c Release -o published" and then "dotnet published/{projectName}.dll" to try to run it. The server starts running, but it doesn't build/run the React.js frontend with the proxy like in development ("dotnet watch run").
On Visual Studio, I right click the solution and hit "Publish to folder". Unfortunately, I keep getting "npm command not found". I've checked my terminal and confirmed that npm is installed. Any ideas why this is happening?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
