Are you using mix to compile now instead of create react app?
If so, try prefixing the variable in both env file and scripts with MIX_. Eg MIX_REACT_APP_URL

Laravel React process.env.REACT_APP_URL is Undefined
The react project was originally developed separately using create react-app but have been successfully merged in to the laravel app most of the pages load fine except for images that makes use of the process.env.REACT_APP_URL a log of process.env results in an empty object {} showing that the method is working but it is not picking up the react env variables.
I have checked against the common causes of this issue which are
-
.env fileis located at the root of the laravel project along withpackage.jsonandcomposer.jsonetc - The react variable key names are all prefixed with REACT_APP
- dotenv package is installed in
package.json - i aways run
npm run devwhen ever i make a change if am not runningnpm run watch - currently on laravel v7.6 and react v16.13.1
What could i be missing?
