I was thinking about building something like this

Copy code

myCoolApp
  /stacks
  /frontend - a react app 
  /website - a gatsby site

I’d then have my app deploy at

Copy code

<http://app.myCoolApp.com|app.myCoolApp.com> //react site
<http://www.myCoolApp.com|www.myCoolApp.com> //gatsby
<http://myCoolApp.com|myCoolApp.com> // gatsby

Or something. Really I just want to avoid Next but have some static content for SEO. Any ideas?

This is what I’m going with but I have no idea if this is correct

Copy code

const reactApp = new sst.ReactStaticSite(this, "ReactSite", {
      path: "frontend",
      customDomain:
        scope.stage === "prod"
          ? {
              domainName: `app.${URL}`,
              domainAlias: `wwww.app.${URL}`,
            }
          : {
              domainName: `dev.app.${URL}`,
              domainAlias: `wwww.dev.app.${URL}`,
            },
    });

    const staticSite = new sst.StaticSite(this, "Site", {
      path: "website/index.html",
      customDomain:
        scope.stage === "prod"
          ? {
              domainName: `${URL}`,
              domainAlias: `wwww.${URL}`,
            }
          : {
              domainName: `dev.${URL}`,
              domainAlias: `wwww.dev.${URL}`,
            },
    });

Why the desire to avoid Next specifically?

Devin

I’ve never gotten it to work

dev/prod

with a deployment using serverless

there’s also a little bit of me that wants to use Remix when it comes out so why bother learning next

Where there specific sticking points that got you with Next and SST? or serverless generally?

Devin

with sst it’s the environmental variables once I added auth… stuff like that. It’s always been something. If this subdomain thing works I think that a react app with a static app will be perfect for my needs.

gatsby is good for static and seo, subdomain setup seems reasonable

whats your backend to the react app?

Devin

11/06/2021, 10:31 PM

I’m just going to use API Gateway
