Question about ReactJS single page in production with Apache.

[wyattbiker]

I'd like to use Apache to serve static ReactJS content without the need of nodejs running.

Once I create a bundle and just a bunch of static files (e.g. html, json, txt, jpg, etc) on the back end, do I still need nodejs or webpack for anything in production. Also can I use .fetch() for fetching data, from REST services?

In RSK the default dependencies include express and sqlite. What else would I need to forego to make this work (e.g. sqllite?). Thanks

If you don't want to run node.js server, then you have the following options (choose 1 or 2 or 3):

1. Build an app to static files yarn run build --static and serve the content of build folder only with no dependencies.
2. Use react-firebase-starter.
3. Use create-react-app.
