- Install the Netlify CLI:
npm i -g netlify-cli
If you have previously installed the Netlify CLI, you should update it to the latest version:
npm i -g netlify-cli@latest
- Sign up and log in to Netlify:
netlify login
- Create a new site:
netlify init
Ensure all packages are installed by running:
npm install
Run
netlify dev
Open up http://localhost:8888, and you're ready to go!
To serve your site locally in a production-like environment, run
netlify serve
Your site will be available at http://localhost:8888. Note that it will not auto-reload when you make changes.
There are two ways to deploy your app to Netlify, you can either link your app to your git repo and have it auto deploy changes to Netlify, or you can deploy your app manually. If you've followed the setup instructions already, all you need to do is run this:
# preview deployment
netlify deploy --build
# production deployment
netlify deploy --build --prod
