An Express/React boilerplate

Boilersuite

A React and Express boilerplate.

This is very much a work in progress.

To install:

1. In a new directory, git init OR create an empty GitHub repo and clone that.
2. Run the following to add this to your project: git remote add boilersuite https://github.com/ghoagland/boilersuite git fetch boilersuite git merge boilersuite/master Now, if you wish to get any updates from this boilerplate, you can with a git fetch boilersuite and git merge boilersuite/master.
3. npm install it!
4. Update the project information in the package.json.

To run:

1. npm run start-dev will bundle your code and start serving up a small React app on port 8080.

In future, the goal is to have branches with various libraries and functionalities added in: Sequelize for database interaction, Redux for front-end state management, OAuth, and WebSockets to name a few. This is not there yet! The main goal is to have a boilerplate that can be combined to have multiple other features.

This boilerplate is very much influenced by the Fullstack boilerplate, boilermaker
