why React production build only shows the 404 page without the rest of the page?-CodePudding

I created a website with react and I'm using react-router-dom I want to deploy it to netlify, so i run npm run build but when I click the index.html. It only shows the route I created for the non-existing path i.e 404 page, How do I go about displaying the Homepage and the rest of the page?

CodePudding user response：

Add a netlify.toml file to the root of your project and add the following lines. Then re-deploy on Netlify.

Redirects and rewrites

This is necessary to instruct netlify to redirect all routes to your app. So that react-router-dom can handle routing internally.
