What & Why

Bazaar is an opinionated boilerplate for building apps quickly and easily. Here's what you get:

Backend

• Amplify (optional) – for backend data and authentication

Frontend

• Expo / React Native – for x-platform compilation (with web support)
• React – Hooks API
• React Navigation – for navigation
• React Spring – for animation
• theme-ui – for consistent, scalable styles
• @xstate/react – state machine context hooks

Tools & Testing

• Yarn Workspaces – for working with multiple Amplify lambdas
• Ava (optional) – for testing lambdas/backend
• Jest – for testing the front end
• Eslint – for syntactical hints
• Prettier – for structural consistency

Getting Started

• yarn - install dependencies
• yarn workspace frontend run start - start up the app in development mode
• yarn workspace frontend add package - add a package to the frontend
• yarn add package -W - add a package to the root

Documentation

• Frontend
• Backend

FAQ

Question: Why the name Bazaar?

Answer: I googled 'expo synonyms' and this was the only one I liked.

Question: Not Lerna + NPM?

Answer: Lerna uses Workspaces a bit, so I kinda like the idea of one package manager just handling everything.
