Pulsar

Pulsar is a Webpack + React starter kit for single-page web applications.

In the box

• React + React Router 4 (DOM)
• SCSS + autoprefixing
• Production build is minified + gzipped
• Polyfills delivered only on non-modern browsers
• Jest for unit tests
• Deploys to Netlify

Clone and set up

$ git clone git@github.com:geotrev/pulsar.git PROJECT_NAME
$ cd PROJECT_NAME
$ rm -rf .git
$ git init

Then install dependencies:

# Use npm
$ npm install
# or yarn
$ yarn install

Create your app manifest, browserconfig, and app icons!

Visit favicon-generator.org to create your various device-specific assets. Add the icons to public/static/ and the manifest.json + browserconfig.xml to public/ alongside the main index.html file.

Running the app

There's just a few scripts you need to run locally, build production assets, and run tests.

Run dev server

$ npm run watch

Make production builds

$ npm run build

Run Jest tests

$ npm test

Watch tests on file save

$ npm run test:watch
