The awesome new Responder web framework includes great support for serving static files, so this project shows how easy it is to integrate a React single page app.
- 🍪 quick start – create your own project in less than a minute using cookiecutter (example repo & website)
- 🚀 quick to launch – use a "Deploy to Heroku" button in the generated README.md (looks like this) – it's magic ✨ (actually multiple buildpacks & a custom build step)
- 🐳 Docker support – get a dev environment up in no time with
docker-compose up - 🔨 modern JS tooling – a seamless workflow using Parcel
- 🔀 frontend routing – using React Router you can elegantly serve different React components on different urls
- 📻 server routing – trusted old server-side routing still works, so go ahead & build the admin interface without any JS
You can quickly reuse the scaffolding for your own project using cookiecutter:
pip install -U cookiecutter
cookiecutter gh:metakermit/responder-react # use a project name with no spacesYou will find further instructions in the generated project's README.md, but in short all you do is:
bin/install
bin/startor
docker-compose upAnd you'll have your Responder server serving the React app on http://localhost:5042/. React Router is used for the frontend routing. To demonstrate how the app should work, it consists of two pages:
- ShoppingList running on
/
- About running on
/about
