Boilerplate to create a React app using Rollup.
Rollup is the right tool for bundling your javascript applications. But when you develop you still need Webpack ? You could rely on a well known article : Webpack and Rollup: the same but different But it is time to change our mind, and to remove Webpack. This template is a first step in this direction.
Another point rollup-create-app try to follow create-react-app, the source code, static assets, tests and structure are the same.
- Create a minimal from scratch React app using Rollup to bundle but also to develop instead of using Webpack.
- Need for a complete boilerplate / example how to develop and bundle React app using Rollup
- Stay compatible with
create-react-appcommands (start, build, test) - Develop using Nollup and Hot Module replacement (using experimental react-refresh)
- Bundle 2 packages : an ESM one for (> 2018 browsers) and another one for olders, instead of
create-react-app - Be compatible to good practices (Husky, Commitlint, ...)
- Experiment new stuff (Nollup, Typescript)
- Base code
- Serve
- Jsx support
- Build for prod
- Css / images
- Hot reload
- esm/iife scripts support
- test
- Typescript

rollup-react-app tries to work as create-react-app, so commands are the same.
In the project directory, you can run:
Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:5000 to view it in the browser.
Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.
Youc could test it using this command:
npx serve build -l 9000
Run tests using jest. See src/App.test.jsx
Does a code coverage report. A directory coverage is generated containing an html report.
