generator-react-babelify

React, Browserify and Babel with ES2015 preset

A minimal generator to get started with React and ES2015. Perhaps useful for regular users of Yeoman, npm and node.js. I use it to learn and practice different example implementations.

Features:

• Simple node server
  • serve a static json file from data/ directory at /api path
  • serve static files under /public
• Your application code goes into src/
  • In src/components/ you can find a simple hello world component and a component showcasing one way to fetch data using $.ajax.
• Transpile src/app.js into public/bundle.js

Hope it helps to get started with React and ES2015.

Installation

This is not published but you can use it locally by cloning this repository and then linking it to your system using npm link.

git clone https://github.com/afarriaga/generator-react-babelify.git
cd generator-react-babelify

npm link

Then create a folder where you want to scaffold, navigate into it and then generate your new project:

yo react-babelify

You would have to manually run npm install in your project folder and then npm start which runs the watcher and the node server.
