"Forking" outside of Github

To use this base in other git software (not Github) you will have to manually manage the upstream. Go into your existing repo and execute the following commands:

  1. git remote add upstream <clone-url>
  2. git pull upstream master # or other branchname
  3. git push

Then, when you need to sync again you can repeat step 2 and 3

Configuration

This starter kit comes with runtime configuration out-of-the-box. It achieves this with 2 config files in the public directory: config.js and configOverrides.js. config.js is meant to be filled with a default for all of your application's runtime configurations. configOverrides.js is meant to be replaced during deployment with environment specific runtime overrides.

Using the config.ts file

To use the config you import Config from config.ts and use the typed object:

import { Config } from "../config";

import { FunctionComponent } from "react";

export const Navbar: FunctionComponent<{}> = () => {
  return <h1>{JSON.stringify(Config)}</h1>;
};

adding values

To add a value to the runtime config you have to take 2 steps:

  1. Add a type to the RuntimeConfig type in src/infrastructure/config/RunTimeConfig.ts

    type RunTimeConfig = {
      version: number;
      name: string;
      myNewKey: string;
    };
  2. Add a key (if required) to public/config.js
