Trouble Deploying React + Vite + TS Front End

I've successfully (and easily) deployed this type of app with Vercel before, but now that I'm trying Railway, I'm running into issues. I'm deploying from my project's GitHub repo. I followed the tutorial below for getting a React + Vite app running. But still, when I visit the generated domain for my app, I get a 503 page. I'm a newer developer and although I'm pretty good with building full stack applications, I haven't needed to "get my hands dirty" with this type of stuff very much yet. I got used to Vercel just "magically" handling everything for me, and now I'm learning that there's more going on behind the scenes that it was just hiding from me. What might I be missing? Any help is greatly appreciated! https://help.railway.app/project-help/f9v3gkPQRy4UShk5SnoPDH/getting-your-create-react-app-running-on-railway/qHRsgxa5n57xLp1yVgk9fP

It's telling me to provide my project ID, so I hope this is doing the right thing: 0818d295-6f1c-470c-8a5e-2fd74a4c16bd

can you share your repo?

Thanks for replying, but I already deleted the Railway project. I decided to start from scratch with a Railway template instead, and build off of that. My project is still very young (only 2 commits) so it's not a problem to copy the code over to the new repo.

yeah thats a good idea, my vite templates have a better way of tackling the under the hood side of things, that article i wrote still works but caddy (what the vite template uses) is better than serve
