Install the Surge CLI if you haven't already by running `npm install -g surge`. Run the `surge` command and log in you or create a new account. You just need to specify the *build* folder and your custom domain, and you are done.

```sh
email: [email protected]
password: ********
project path: /path/to/project/build
size: 7 files, 1.8 MB
domain: create-react-app.surge.sh
upload: [====================] 100%, eta: 0.0s
propagate on CDN: [====================] 100%
plan: Free
users: [email protected]
IP Address: X.X.X.X

Success! Project is published and running at create-react-app.surge.sh
```

Note that in order to support routers that use html5 `pushState` API, you may want to rename the `index.html` in your build folder to `200.html` before deploying to Surge. This [ensures that every URL falls back to that file](https://surge.sh/help/adding-a-200-page-for-client-side-routing).
