FAQPage Schema
How do I deploy my Ethereum dApp frontend to IPFS and set up an ENS subdomain?

To deploy your dApp to IPFS and set up an ENS subdomain, you must follow a complete build-to-production pipeline. This involves uploading frontend build files to IPFS, configuring correct IPFS routing, and pointing your ENS subdomain to the generated IPFS hash.

What is the best way to configure a Scaffold-ETH 2 project for production deployment?

The best way to configure a Scaffold-ETH 2 project for production deployment is by emphasizing fork mode over local chains and applying essential build configurations. Following a comprehensive production checklist ensures your Ethereum frontend is robust and ready for live environments.

Can I use this production deployment pipeline for any Ethereum frontend project, or only Scaffold-ETH?

You can use this production deployment pipeline for any Ethereum frontend project. While the guide focuses on Scaffold-ETH 2 and its specific configurations, the core steps for IPFS deployment, Vercel configuration, and ENS setup are applicable to any Ethereum dApp.

Why should I use fork mode instead of a local chain when building my dApp for production?

You should use fork mode instead of a local chain when building your dApp because it provides a more robust and accurate testing environment before production deployment. This best practice ensures your frontend interacts correctly with mainnet state prior to going live.

What does a complete dApp production checklist include for Vercel configuration and IPFS routing?

A complete dApp production checklist includes correct IPFS routing setup, proper Vercel configuration, and ENS subdomain pointing. It ensures all essential build configurations are applied so your decentralized frontend is live, accessible, and production-ready.
