> [@\[Support Guide\] I’ve deployed my site but I still see "Page not found”](https://answers.netlify.com/t/support-guide-i-ve-deployed-my-site-but-i-still-see-page-not-found/125):

> Last reviewed by Netlify Support - August, 2023 Netlify attempts to lookup a file based on several xor filters, and when all of these fail, we end up serving a 404 page.

If this doesn’t solve your issue, you can please share

- the repository you are deploying from
- a screenshot of the build settings you are using in the Netlify UI

React projects require building. Are you deploying _(dragging and dropping)_ the built project, of the source files?
