The minimal dev environment to enable live-editing React components.
The first time you use this application, you'll want to install dependencies!
npm install
You have two options now, you can run in dev environment or the prod environment.
The development environment gives you Redux DevTools.
npm run dev
open http://localhost:3000
To use this application in production mode, simply:
npm start
open http://localhost:3000
This project includes React-friendly ESLint configuration - this can be changed to meet your needs.
npm run lint
You may want to change the host in server.js and webpack.config.js from localhost to 0.0.0.0 to allow access from same WiFi network. This is not enabled by default because it is reported to cause problems on Windows. This may also be useful if you're using a VM.
This boilerplate is purposefully simple to show the minimal configuration for React Hot Loader. For a real project, you'll want to add a separate config for production with hot reloading disabled and minification enabled. You'll also want to add a router, styles and maybe combine dev server with an existing server. This is out of scope of this boilerplate, but you may want to look into other starter kits.
