What he answered and you had asked are not the same.
He just pointed out that in a React App, we need to compile the files using node to generate build files inorder to work in production.
Generally in VPS or private cloud the build process is took place in server where we explicitly have node installed. He intends to tell that you can build your React App in your local machine and just copy the build files to the production.
Hope I cleared your first doubt.
