deployment

To deploy this repo you need the index.html and scripts/bundle.js files. Upload them via a CDN or static website hosting. Works well as an S3 bucket website or using services like netlify.

Only the bundle.js is needed to create the entire app so you are free to use inline javascript or alternatively mount the app onto an HTML element within an existing app.
