The idea of this video is to show you that "raw" Linux deployment can be quite easy. When I was learning web development many years ago, I used to deploy my applications using services for everything thinking that deploying from scratch has to be very difficult. I hope that this video will convince you that it is not. As noted, this is not an in-depth guide on deployment, but I am thinking of creating a series of videos where I would go much deeper. Let me know if this is something that you would be interested in.
Great video! Could you perhaps create a tutorial on deploying a Django React App with AWS EC2 or direct me to a resource for that? I have found a tutorial for deploying a Django project with EC2, but I have my frontend in React separately like you.
React on its own is just a JavaScript library. When you create a bundle, you end up with some JavaScript and CSS files. If you want to deploy a React application without any backend (server) code, you just need to find a place to host these static files. You can for example use Github pages. In this video, I deploy a more complicated application that includes Django backend, therefore I use a virtual private server (VPS) where I need to set up the databese, NGINX, etc.

I'm really enjoying your React lecture!
Thank you!
Thank you!
It all works, thank you!

Where is the react deployment?
