Nodess (Node Simplest Setup)

This is a skeleton for developing Nodejs projects with:

testing (Mocha and Chai)
ES6 support (babel)
nodemon for automatic reloading

Usage

"Installation"

First off get it on your machine:

clone the repo and replace my-project-name with yours:

git clone git@github.com:gbili/nodess my-project-name

cd my-project-name and edit package.json, mainly the "name": and author
- Optionally and add your own dependencies
- Update package-lock.json by init and accepting defaults:
```
npm init
```
- Install dependencies:
```
npm install
```
- Make sure everything works (following command should say 1 fail an 1 sucess:
```
npm test
```

change the git remote to point to your own repo (that you have created in advance):

git remote remove origin
git remote add origin git@github.com:myname/my-project-name

commit and upload those inital changes

git commit -am "build: change project purpose"

Start coding:

start the development server
```
npm run develop
```
from there you can add your own files and strucutre in src/

Testing

Add your own tests in the ./tests/*, and run them with:
```
