universal-react-app

This project was bootstrapped with Create React App, and has been modified to be handle server rendering.

The following changes have been made from a standard Create React App project:

• An index.node.js file has been added, which will be bundled to the build/node directory. It exports a standard Node HTTP middleware that can be used to render the app within an Express app, or within a serverless function.
• A %RENDERED_CONTENT% placeholder has been added to index.html, which is replaced with the rendered content by the NNode renderer.
• A middleware has been added to the dev server that uses index.node.js to render your app during development.
• Support for both .web.js and .node.js extensions, which will be used in their respective environments.
• The original value of the process.env object has been made usable, allowing the Node bundle to access environment variables.
• The React app has been updated to use ReactDOM.hydrate() instead of ReactDOM.render().
• A serve script has been added, which can be called with npm run serve, and will serve the contents of build. It includes an express-based server to load the exported middleware.
• All SSR-related features can be disabled by removing index.node.js.
