This repository contains a pre-built arechive file for deployment: timescale.tar.gz.
You can rebuild this file by taring and gzipping the dist/ folder created with npm run build. Just make sure you make the following changes after building:
- convert paths in index.html from =/ to just =
- 9 instances
- strip last char from footer image paths (3 images)
- go to js/app.xxxxxx.js
- find the 3 images (img/...)
- add this to the image path generation variable: .slice(0, -1), .e.g i.exports=r.p.slice(0, -1)+"img/
npm run test
npm run lint
