This project is an application skeleton for a typical React web app. You can use it to quickly bootstrap your React webapp projects and dev environment for these projects.

The seed contains a sample React JS application and is preconfigured to install the React framework and a bunch of development and testing tools for instant web development gratification.

To get you started you can simply clone the react-my-seed repository and install the dependencies:

You need git to clone the react-my-seed repository. You can get git from here.

We also use a number of Node.js tools to initialize and test react-my-seed. You must have Node.js and its package manager (npm) installed. You can get them from here.

Clone the react-my-seed repository using git:

git clone https://github.com/micataudella/react-my-seed.git
cd react-my-seed

If you just want to start a new project without the react-my-seed commit history then you can do:

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/micataudella/react-my-seed.git <your-project-name>

The depth=1 tells git to only pull down one commit worth of historical data.

To install the project dependencies simply run:

npm install

After clone you can also run ./initDev.sh to install dependencies and git hooks for commit messages.

The Project is inspired by a fountainJS scaffolded app with Gulp. So commands are more or less the same:

• gulp or gulp build to build an optimized version of your application in /dist
• gulp serve to launch a browser sync server on your source files
• gulp serve:dist to launch a server on your optimized application
• gulp test to launch your unit tests with Karma
• gulp test:auto to launch your unit tests with Karma in watch mode

Run gulp serve:dist --env staging|prod if you have to manage different development environments (domains and paths). The config file to edit is env.conf.js under /conf.

Local server is launched on localhost:3000/.

If you don't have gulp-cli installed in global, you should have this error:

/usr/local/lib/node_modules/gulp/bin/gulp.js:121 gulpInst.start.apply(gulpInst, toRun); TypeError: Cannot read property 'apply' of undefined
