reactjs - Use custom build output folder when using create-react-app

Question

Facebook provides a create-react-app command to build react apps. When we run npm run build, we see output in /build folder.

npm run build

Builds the app for production to the build folder. It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes. Your app is ready to be deployed!

How can we use custom folder instead of /build for the output? Thanks.

Edit your package.json:

"build": "react-scripts build && mv build webapp"
