Deploy a Vanilla JS app to revenexx Storefronts

Learn how to setup and deploy Vanilla JS apps on revenexx Storefronts.

Create web app

Open your terminal, and run the following command.

Bash
mkdir my-app
cd my-app

In this directory, create two files with the following code:

  • index.html
HTML
<html>
    <head>
        <script type="module" src="/app.js"></script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <h1>Demo App</h1>
        <button>Click Me!</button>
    </body>
</html>
  • app.js
JavaScript
row.querySelector("button").addEventListener("click", () => {
    alert("Hello World!");
});

Push this project to a GitHub repository.

Sign in to Cockpit

Open Cockpit and select the tenant you're deploying for. If this is your first time using revenexx, create your account first.

Create site

In Cockpit, go to Experience Studio → Sites, create a new site, and choose the Git path.

Connect your GitHub account and select the repository you intend to deploy (or allow all repositories, for future ease).

  1. Select the production branch and root directory from your repo.
  2. Verify that the correct framework is selected. In case an incorrect framework is visible, pick Other from the drop-down list.
  3. Confirm the install command, build command, and output directory in the build settings. The build settings for this app will be:
    • Install command: N/A (leave empty, unless you have installed any external packages)
    • Build command: N/A (leave empty, unless you have installed any external packages)
    • Output directory: ./
  4. Add any environment variables required by the storefront. This is not necessary if you're deploying the starter app.

Click on the Deploy button.

Visit site

After successful deployment, click on the Visit site button.
