Run npm start to preview the React portfolio locally on port 3000
Run npm run build to produce a deployable static bundle
Read the code directly to see what the portfolio actually contains
Use as a starting template for another Create React App project
The README is the unmodified Create React App boilerplate, so you have to open the source code to learn what the project actually contains.
This repository is called true-friends-portfolio, but the README does not describe a portfolio site at all. The text is the default starter README that the Create React App tool drops into every new project. So everything in the README is generic, and tells you about Create React App rather than about whatever Eric Mugisha actually built in the code. For context, Create React App was a popular way to start a React project. React is a JavaScript library from Meta for building web user interfaces, and Create React App wrapped React together with a bundler, a test runner, and a development server so you did not have to wire those tools up yourself. The README is what every new Create React App project starts with on day one. The README walks through four scripts. Running npm start launches a local development server at port 3000 that hot reloads when you save changes. Running npm test starts an interactive test runner. Running npm run build produces an optimized, minified bundle in a build folder that you can deploy. Running npm run eject pulls all the hidden build configuration into the project, with a warning that this step cannot be reversed. The rest of the file is a list of links to the Create React App documentation site, covering code splitting, bundle size analysis, turning the app into a progressive web app, advanced configuration, deployment, and a troubleshooting note for when the production build fails to minify. The repo name suggests this is meant to be a personal portfolio site, possibly for friends or for a class project, but the README itself gives no information about that. There is no description of the pages, the styling, the data, the design, or how to deploy this specific portfolio. To learn what the project actually does, a reader would need to open the source code in the repository rather than rely on this README.
