Ubuntu Subdomain Implementation for React Development Environment

Hello,

Are you planning to use another web server like Nginx? You can host multiple applications on the droplet but you’ll need a web server like Nginx to set up your virtual hosts

To work with subdomains in your React app during development, you can use a combination of a local server like nginx and modify your hosts file. An example configuration will be:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name product.local;
    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:3000;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
    }
}

For more information on setting up subdomains with DigitalOcean, you can check out our Nginx Server Blocks guide.
