Deploying a React website on GoDaddy involves several steps. Since GoDaddy offers shared hosting, you'll typically upload your built React files to the hosting server.  Here's a simplified guide: Prepare Your React App for Deployment :Build your React app to generate static files (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) that can be hosted. Use the command:arduinoCopy code npm run build Access Your GoDaddy cPanel :Log in to your GoDaddy account and go to your cPanel. This is where you'll manage your hosting environment. File Manager :In your cPanel, find and open the "File Manager". This is where you'll upload your React app files. Upload Files :Inside the File Manager, navigate to the directory where you want to host your React app. This could be the "public_html" directory which is the root directory for your website.Upload the contents of the  build  folder (generated by the  npm run build  command) to this directory. You can do this by either using the upload func...

HOWTO - Create New SSH User

  Create a New SSH User: Create a new user on your server for the person who needs to SSH in. You can do this using the adduser command. For example:           sudo adduser newuser      Follow the prompts to set up a password and other details for the new user. Grant Sudo Privileges (Optional): If the user needs administrative privileges, you can add them to the sudo group. This allows them to execute commands with superuser privileges. Use the usermod command:      sudo usermod -aG sudo newuser Provide Public Key: Ask the user to generate an SSH key pair on their local machine (if they haven't already) using the ssh-keygen command. They will have a private key (usually named id_rsa ) and a public key (usually named id_rsa.pub ). Send Public Key to You: Have the user send you their public key. This is typically the content of the id_rsa.pub file. They can use a secure method like encrypted email or a secure messagi...

HOWTO- Generate SSH Key

Image
  Generate SSH Key Pair: Type the following command to generate an SSH key pair. The -t option specifies the type of key to create (in this case, RSA), and the -b option specifies the number of bits in the key (2048 is a common choice). ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 2048 Press Enter. It will prompt you for a location to save the key. The default location is usually fine, so just press Enter. It will also ask you to enter a passphrase. This is an additional layer of security. You can enter a passphrase or leave it blank, but using a passphrase is recommended for better security. Locate Your SSH Key: By default, the keys are stored in the ~/.ssh/ directory. Your private key will be named id_rsa and your public key will be named id_rsa.pub . Display Your Public Key: You can view your public key using the following command: cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub Copy the output. Add the Public Key to the Remote Server: Log in to your remote server. Navigate to the ~/.ssh/ directory (create it if it doesn'...
