Dockerizing SPA using SWS (static-web-server)

This repository provides a reference on how to create a Docker image for client-side applications built with frameworks like React, Vite, etc. The goal is to create a minimal and efficient Docker image. To achieve this, we use static-web-server to serve the final build files, ensuring the image remains small and lean.

Why static-web-server?

static-web-server is a fast and efficient web server written in Rust, designed specifically for serving static files. It is chosen for this project because:

• It is fast and lightweight, contributing to a smaller Docker image.
• It provides useful features out-of-the-box like gzip compression, HTTP/2, and customizable headers.

Steps to create Docker Image

1. Clone this repository

   git clone https://github.com/Trugamr/vite-docker-static-web-server.git
   cd vite-docker-static-web-server

2. Build the Docker image

   docker build -t vite-docker-static-web-server .

3. Run the Docker container

   docker run --rm -p 8080:80 vite-docker-static-web-server

   The application will be available at http://localhost:8080.
