A simplified boilerplate for my React projects

React Minimal Boilerplate

This will be a React Boilerplate for I have made for my react projects. Its inspired by Pete Hunt's React HowTo.

I call it React Minimal Boilerplate as it has a minimal set of libraries, when it comes to adding a JavaScript library to my FrontEnd projects I deeply believe in: If you do not need it do not use it.

Libraries included in the project:

1. React, React-DOM : 15.3.1
2. React-Router: 2.7.0
3. immutable: 3.8.1
4. Webpack: 1.13.2
5. Babel: 6.x
6. CSS-Modules for styling
7. Unit Test Coverage: enzyme:2.4.1, mocha:3.0.2, chai:3.5.0, sinonjs:1.17.5
8. ESLint: 3.4.0, using eslint-config-airbnb:10.0.0
9. Flow: 0.22.1

Other small tweaks I did for myself:

1. In development mode all http requests with /api will be redirected to http://localhost:8080
2. Added normalize.css to the project
3. The project uses /template/index.html as template to create index.html in dev mode and during build

To use boilerplate, follow these steps:

1. git clone https://github.com/jpuri/react-minimal-boilerplate.git
2. rm -rf .git
3. npm install
4. npm start
