Standalone app instructions result in wrong link to main.js

[blincoln-bf]

I followed the instructions at https://4catalyzer.github.io/graphql-explorer/docs/standalone, and the app began being served, but I'd get a 404 for /static/main.js, i.e.:

$ npx http-server node_modules/graphql-explorer-html/build

I tried creating a soft link to the main.js file that's right in the build directory, but Node didn't like that and would respond with:

     Error: ELOOP: too many symbolic links encountered, stat '[base path]/node_modules/graphql-explorer/html/build/static/main.js'

This worked:

mkdir node_modules/graphql-explorer-html/build/static
cp node_modules/graphql-explorer-html/build/main.js node_modules/graphql-explorer-html/build/static/

...but I'm not familiar enough with this codebase to know if there's a better/preferred way to fix the problem, like updating index.html to remove the "/static" part of the link.
