Toolkit for rapid development of React and Angular 2 apps.

1. Create the app folder

mkdir app_name
cd app_name

2. Optionally set app options in the .frontendrc file

3. Install frontend-cli locally

npm install frontend-cli

frontend-cli will create app base file structure after installing oneself.

frontend-cli includes itself a scaffolding utility, bundler and development webserver which running by the bin/fe executable at the root of the app directory.

Generate new code:

bin/fe generate <scaffold> <name> [..options]

Remove earlier generated code:

bin/fe destroy <scaffold> <name>

• html — index.html page template
• stylelint — stylelint config file

• component
• route
• actions
• reducer

Build an app:

bin/fe build [..options]

where the options are:

• --environment or -e — build for the desired enviromnent, choices are: development, test and production. Default is development. If omitted bundler will try to get this setting from NODE_ENV environment variable.
• --watch or -w — build in the watch mode.
• --config or -c — path to the Webpack config file options from which will override the internal config. If omitted bundler will try to load options from webpack.config and Webpackfile files in the root of the app directory.
• --options or -o — options object to pass to the external config if it is a function. Behaves just like the Webpack's CLI --env option.

Run the development server which will watch your code and perform hot swapping on its changes:

bin/fe server [..options]

where the options are:

• --port or -p — set server port. Default is 3000.
• --bind or -b — set host bind server to. Default is localhost.
• --config or -c — same as in the bundler.
• --options or -o — same as in the bundler.
