If you're encountering a blank page after running "build" on create-react-app, here are some potential solutions to try:
- Set "homepage" in package.json:
Add the following line to the top level of your package.json file:"homepage": "."
- Use HashRouter instead of BrowserRouter:
If you are using react-router and trying to open index.html directly in the browser, replace BrowserRouter with HashRouter. - Ensure you're running the build files in a server environment:
The built files should be run in a server environment to function properly. - Double-check the published folder:
Ensure that you are publishing the "build" folder instead of the "public" folder. - Remove comments inside the "return" method:
If you have any comments inside the "return" method, remove them as they can cause issues. - Add "INLINE_RUNTIME_CHUNK=false" variable:
Add the following variable to the build script to resolve issues with the inline runtime script not running:"build": "INLINE_RUNTIME_CHUNK=false react-scripts build",
- Update paths when deploying to GitHub Pages:
If you're deploying to GitHub Pages, you may need to update paths in your code to match the deployment location. - Ensure proper import of useContext:
Incorrect import of useContext can lead to a blank screen. Verify that you are importing it correctly. - Set "private" property to false in package.json:
Change the value of the "private" property to false in package.json. - Update paths when changing the homepage:
When changing the homepage in package.json, you may need to update paths in your code to match the new homepage. - Specify CSS path properly:
Ensure that CSS paths are specified correctly in your components or index.js. Incorrect paths can result in a blank screen.
By following these solutions, you should be able to resolve the blank page issue and get your create-react-app project running smoothly.
