serve [create-react-app](https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app) using [serve](https://github.com/zeit/serve) as a single page application.

use when you want a backened to your react app.

# example

server

```javascript

process.env.REACT_APP_BUILD=[path to react app build directory]

// base url set by process.env.PUBLIC_URL

const serve = require('serve-create-react-app')('COOKIE_NAME_FOR_BASE_URL')

await serve(req, res)

```

# build

```sh

serve-create-react-app [path-to-react]

```

# usage when pathname is not root

Make sure homepage is "." in your react app's `package.json`.

This is documented [here](https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app/blob/master/packages/react-scripts/template/README.md#serving-the-same-build-from-different-paths)

Then when running set `process.env.PUBLIC_URL`

# usage when pathname is root

Make sure homepage is not added to react app's `package.json`.

Run without setting `process.env.PUBLIC_URL`

ENV REACT_APP_BUILD /usr/src/app/src/ui/build

RUN ./node_modules/.bin/serve-create-react-app

USER node

EXPOSE 5000

```

# example Docker run
