Suggestion: Set up Vercel for a development site and configure Vercel previews for new commits

Open andrewtpham opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

We would like to explore setting up a development site once the final website is published that could mirror an active develop branch so that as new PRs are merged into the develop branch, we can see the latest changes in the development site.

Additionally, a tool like Vercel can provide previews when a new PR is opened and when commits are made to it.

Here's some reference material on Vercel: https://vercel.com/docs/git

The easiest way to use Git is to think of your main branch as production. Every time a pull/merge request is made to that branch, Vercel will create a unique deployment, allowing you to view the changes in a preview environment before merging.

TO DOs:

  • @malakumar85 to create a Vercel workspace for MERL Center
  • Configure Vercel to work with our MERL-Center-public repo
