single-file-example.html link broken

[WxNzEMof]

The page https://legacy.reactjs.org/docs/getting-started.html#try-react has a link with the text download this HTML file", that currently goes to https://raw.githubusercontent.com/reactjs/reactjs.org/main/static/html/single-file-example.html. That URL is a 404.

There is a warning about that. This docs are old.

Ah, I did not notice that.

That page is the number one result for the Google query "react getting started".

Maybe worth adding some meta tags to remove or de-prioritize it from search engines?

[Rekl0w]

I submitted a PR about that.

Thanks! Though, I think rel="canonical" or a robots.txt entry might be more effective.

Yeah we gotta fix these SEO issues, thanks everyone for flagging and making suggestions. I'm swamped with React Conf but can help review and land fixes afterwards.
