React Multipage sample query and surfacing forms with the SharePoint Framework

I looking to build a set of of imput forms for a client that sort of mimics a Master-Detail type user experience. If I can't manage the Master-Detail, the minimum is to pass date between pages. so having cloned the Spfx-samples repo, I'm looking at the React samples that are close to what I need to acheive. Taking the React Multipage sample.

In the ReadMe it has the following text:

"- from the **./temp** directory create a copy of the **workbench.html** file and rename it to **workbench.aspx**

- in the **workbench.aspx** file change the value of the **webAbsoluteUrl** property to the absolute URL of your SharePoint site

- upload the **workbench.aspx** file to a document library in your site"

1) why do we need this step given I have step a (live) MS Teams test site for my testers and so I have

https://domain.sharepoint.com/sites/myproject/_layouts/Workbench.aspx

2) In the renamed Workbench.html->Workbench.aspx there isn't a a WebApsoluteUrl property as viewed in VS Code. All the src properties point to LocalHost.

Finally, If want to deploy and test to an external dev tenant (_workbench.aspx). Is there a way to ensure Gulp serves the latest build to this without needed the upload my web parts to app catalogue?
