Deploy

Make your website available for everyone.

Create production build

Smooth DOC is just a Gatsby theme, to create an optimized production build, run:

gatsby build

Read more about directly in Gatsby documentation

Deploy on Netlify

Smooth DOC is already optimized for Netlify. It does several things for you:

  • siteUrl is automatically filled for you (in production and deploy preview)
  • robots.txt will disallow indexing for deploy preview

To deploy on Netlify, follow Gatsby guide.

Deploy on other providers

Since Smooth DOC is based on Gatsby and generates a static website, it can be deployed anywhere. Gatsby has a great documentation about deploying a project.

Be careful of having NODE_ENV=production when you deploy, else the robots.txt will disallow indexing.
