Isomorphic React Workflow Boilerplate

Contains

• React handles our views
• Redux manages the data flow and state
• React-Router keeps UI in sync with the URL
• Express accepts app's request and render React's components
• EJS works with Express
• Babel & Webpack compile and bundle all our files
• React-Hot-Loader helps us developing faster and more convenience

Setup

$ git clone git@github.com:L-movingon/isomorphic-react-workflow-boilerplate.git

$ cd isomorphic-react-workflow-boilerplate && npm install

Usage

$ npm start

Hit localhost:3000 and it's time to create your own awesome app right now!

Note

• Modify webpack-dev-server port

  You need to modify three files if you want to modify webpack-dev-server port

  // server/bundle.js line-30
  
  bundler.listen(8080, 'localhost', ...);

  // server/server.js line-26
  
  target: 'http://localhost:8080'

  // webpack.config.js line line-5
  
  'webpack-dev-server/client?http://localhost:8080',

• Import CSS files

  You can't import .css files in components because babel tries to parse the CSS files even though css and style loaders are defined in the webpack.config.js. Check this issue out or import .css files in app/client.js , that will be fine

• API request

  You can use isomorphic fetch in Async Actions to make your request and put all request handle code like app.all('/api/', router) before app.get('*')
