## What it is
A step-by-step tutorial repository showing how to deploy a React app created with create-react-app to GitHub Pages using the gh-pages npm package. It includes a working example project and has been translated into multiple languages.

## Use cases
- deploy a react app to github pages
- host a react app for free on github
- publish create-react-app project as a static site
- learn how to use the gh-pages npm package
- set up a project site for a react app
- deploy frontend app to github pages from scratch

## When to choose
- you built a React app with create-react-app and want free static hosting
- you want a beginner-friendly, step-by-step deployment walkthrough
- you need a working example repo to copy configuration from

## When to avoid
- you use Vite, Next.js, or another build tool instead of create-react-app
- you need server-side rendering or backend functionality
- you want a maintained deployment tool rather than a tutorial

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: deployment, static-site-generator, developer-tools
- domain: web-development, frontend, tutorials, documentation
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: github-pages, create-react-app, gh-pages, react-deployment, tutorial-repo, free-hosting, web-server, nodejs
