Deploy it to Github Pages 🚀

We can use the gh-pages package to deploy the bento.
Here is a step-by-step guide for deployment:

3. Edit the homepage Key in package.json ✏️

   • Add the homepage key:

    "homepage": "https://username.github.io/"
   

   or
   

    "homepage": "https://username.github.io/bento"
   

4. Change Remote Repository 💻

   • Link your local repository to the GitHub repository:

    git remote add origin https://github.com/username/repository-name.git
   

5. Push React App ⬆️

   • Build and deploy the app:

    npm run build
    npm run deploy
   

6. Configure GitHub Pages ⚙️
