Netlify makes it simple to have your static destinations with them for nothing. I as of late moved my portfolio from a VPS over to them, and it's extraordinary that they consequently update your site each time you push to your git vault.
Previously, I had all my own undertakings additionally facilitated on subdirectories, for example www.glynlewington.com/project. This is either troublesome or incomprehensible with Netlify. Netlify is generally set up for you to have everything in one site from one git store.
The trade off I came to is facilitating them on subdomains all things considered, as project.glynlewington.com. This additionally isn't recorded quite well however it is conceivable.
Go to www.netlify.com and login or information exchange.
Select "New site from git".
Pick your supplier (for example GitHub) — You might have to verify here.
Select the git vault you need to make a site from.
Select the branch you need to send from.
Pick any orders that should be run. — If it's a React application you should run a form order.
Pick the catalog that you will distribute from. It will contain documents, for example, index.html. — If it's a React application this will likely be the form organizer.
Select "Form Site".
As of now, you ought to have a working application facilitated on a Netlify free space like https://hungry-bose-fb0e6d.netlfiy.com. In the event that this isn't working, make sure that there are no mistakes with the form cycle and fix these assuming there are.
Presently to set up a custom space.
Go into your application outline on Netlify.
It will say your site is conveyed effectively and you can set up a custom space.
Click on set up a custom space, type in the space you need, including the subdomain, and click confirm. For example project.glynlewington.com.
Then, login to your space facilitating supplier. I use Cloudflare yet it will be something similar or comparative utilizing others.
Select another CNAME record.
Input a "Name" — this is the subdomain, it ought to be a similar one you chose beforehand on Netlify. For example project
Under "IPv4 Address" input the free area for your Netlify site. For example hungry-bose-fb0e6d.netlify.com.
Assuming you are additionally utilizing Cloudflare, switch off the traffic steering through Cloudflare. This wrecks with Netlify.
Add record.
Done! Whenever you've done this you can get to your site on the subdomain.
Netlify will likewise naturally add https security to your site, don't bother stressing over this.
