Simple Starter SPA Template
Does not use create-react-app for base configuration freedom
Un-opinionated
This is a jumping-off project, meant to give a faster start on a new project by taking care of the configuration of the frontend and backend.
I removed Typscript here because Typescript became a hindrance when trying to do inspired code challenges and/or learning new things. Made this repo for those who did not like the fuss.
There is no style loader, http library, css framework, or any other bells and whistles so you can use what you want, how you want it with no push back.
Which is also the reason I didn't use create-react-app
Run npm install to install all the packages plus all @types so Typescript wont yell at you at the start.
To start the project as a whole, run:
npm run build
npm start
A proxy is setup in the webpack configs to allow you to run API requests from the client side, without having to define another port. You can define more proxies in webpack.config.dev
http://localhost:8080/api/{endpoint}
To run the server separately:
npm run server:build
npm run server
//--> Runs on port 3000
To run only the client:
npm run client
//--> Runs on port 8080
When you run npm build all the source code (/src) will be compiled and bundled into separate directories
dist/ <-- Complied server-side JS code
public/ <-- Bundled and minified client-side code
