Webapps have static entry point of 'public'

[tonybentley]

Webapp assumes location for static index.html will be ${projectRoot}/public/

Reference: https://github.com/SignalK/signalk-server/blob/master/src/interfaces/webapps.js#L54

When using create-react-app the default source file location is public/ and build location is build/ , which requires the developer to eject from the default React app convention and configure source and build directories to follow Signalk convention.

Solution: Make the webAppPath appended directory to be configurable within the plugin.

This is the first time anhybody's asked for something like this. Even if the particular framework does not work with this structure you can work around it, like put your code one directory level down and symlink for dev and use a pre publish script to move things where they should be.

It doesn't look like this is getting traction, so closing.
