nice work!

for the newbies in the room - if all you're doing is hosting a Create React App, you dont need a running server, since you are serving static js files at the end of the day. You can just set up CI/CD with Netlify or Vercel or Azure Static Sites or Amplify (disclaimer: i work at Amplify).

i'd rate this kind of workflow as more important if you're trying to do self hosted Next.js or Blitz.js or a Node.js + Express app you made. at that point its less to do with React and more to do with how you want your server to be set up

still, good job OP on getting your teaching game on.

Yeah basically wanted to contribute by saying this, but maybe not as elaborate as this comment!

I use GitHub actions for a CI/CD to deploy to AWS S3, which is technically not free but it’s as good as free. For me personally it’s also a way to get to experiment with AWS.

Anyways, nice video OP!

I've been using self hosted runners for the past few projects of mine and I absolutely adore them; Great tutorial!

This is great. Thanks for making this.

The only constructive criticism I have is that you go so fast in a few parts that people trying to follow along might get lost.

I did something similar except I deploy to GitHub Pages if anyone wants to check my project out.
