This is a simple application that uses TypeScript on both the server (Express) and client (React). The goal of this project was simply a learning experience, and to realize the huge benefits of having a type safe environment shared by both the client and server.
##Getting started Clone the repo:
git clone git@github.com:brooklynDev/typescript-react-crud-sample.git
Then, cd into that directory and install the necessary dependencies:
npm install
Once that's done, create a MySQL database with any name of your choosing. Then, create a file in the root of the project called .env and place the following keys in the file. Change the values to match your configuration:
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_PORT=3306
DB_NAME={some_db_name}
DB_USER={username}
DB_PASSWORD={password}
Once that's done, we'll use knex to build the database for us:
npm run migrate
From there, you're ready to run the application:
npm start
Point your browser to http://localhost:3000 and experience the awesomeness of the ugliest CRUD app you've ever seen.
