React Boilerplate

This is a simple, opinionated boilerplate to help quickly setup a react-redux appliaction

            main.css
        index.html
    node_modules/

        Containers/
        Services/
        Store/
            confitureStore.js
            rootReducer.js
        app.css
        index.html
        index.js
    package.json
    readme.md
    webpack.config.js

Adding Actions/ActionTypes/Reducer/Selectors

The store is split up into domains as follow

Store/
    Domain1/
        actionTypes.js
        actions.js
        reducer.js
        selectors.js
    Domain2/
        actionTypes.js
        actions.js
        reducer.js
        selectors.js
    configureStore.js
    rootReducer.js

Example

Store/
    Posts/
        actionTypes.js
        actions.js
        reducer.js
        selectors.js
    Comments/
        actionTypes.js
        actions.js
        reducer.js
        selectors.js
    configureStore.js
    rootReducer.js

Combining reducers

All reducers are combined in the rootReducer

import { combineReducers } from "redux";

import domain1Reducer from "./Domain1/reducer";
import domain2Reducer from "./Domain2/reducer";

const rootReducer = combineReducers({
  domain1Reducer,
  domain2Reducer
});

export default rootReducer;

Configure the Store

The configureStore.js is already configured to accept the root reducer as the default store
