Deployment using netlify-cli

Using the GitHub repository is not the only way to deploy a JavaScript App on Netlify, this can also be done by using Netlify CLI (Command Line Interface).

Step 1: Install netlify-cli dependency in your project.

This dependency helps us to deploy our application directly from CLI and provide deployed URL.

npm install netlify-cli -g

Step 2: Initialize netlify in your project.

If the netlify account is logged in, it show the team and here we can set site name. As soon as we add site name, hit enter, then netlify cli detect project structure and files and finally provide site URL.

Step 3: Run netlify deploy

This command will compile all files of project application, asking for publish directory, and Netlify starts building the deployed link for application.

Step 4: Navigate to the created link

After deployment, we have JavaScript application live, and anyone can access that project through link.

Deploying a JavaScript Application on Netlify is easy. You just need to run a few commands in your computer’s command prompt. Netlify works well with Git, so whenever you make changes to your code and push them to your Git repository, Netlify automatically updates your deployed app.
