How to deploy and start on the production cloud server

[Joe]

I just want to deploy the files needed for startup,exclude files such as test,.eslintrc,webpack.dev.js...
And I don't want to install git and other tools in the server.
I want to develop locally, and then send the built files to the server.
Can I just send the files in the build to the server?And How do I start it?
Thanks all.
