title: Do I need an HTTP server (e.g. Express, Nginx, etc.) for react app on Heroku?
body: <p>I am little novice when it comes to deploying full-stack applications.</p>
  
  <p>I am building a basic react app (created with <code>create-react-app</code>) that needs to deployed on Heroku and hit my Rails backend API (separate repo, already built and deployed on Heroku). Do I need to setup a http server (i.e. Express or Nginx) to route requests from the browser to the backend app? Or can I just rely on the default webpack production server to handle this.</p>
  
  <p>Appreciate anyone's help!!</p>
