A quick way to get rolling with React and Flux using Browserify and Gulp

React with Flux Starter Kit

This contains the completed environment setup that we walk through in detail in module 2 of "Building Applications with React and Flux" on Pluralsight.

##This starter kit gives you the following:

• React, React Router, and Flux for ultra-responsive UI development
• Browserify bundling
• jQuery with Bootstrap for styling
• Gulp build that:
  -- compiles JSX
  -- lints JSX and JS via ESLint
  -- bundles JS and CSS files
  -- migrates the built app to the dist folder
  -- runs a dev webserver
  -- opens your browser at the dev URL
  -- reloads the browser upon save

##To get started:

1. Install NodeJS
2. Download this repo
3. Open the command line of your choice and cd to the root directory of this repo on your machine
4. npm install - Installs packages
5. npm install -g gulp - Installs gulp globally. Why globally?
6. gulp - Builds the project and opens your browser.
7. Navigate to http://localhost:9005/ if your browser doesn't open automatically.

You're now all set to follow along with the course!

##Change Log 8.20.2015 - Updated to use gulp-open 1.0.0 and browserify 11.0.1 since the course has been updated to use these versions.
