A thin wrapper around Facebook's create-react-app that adds some common libraries needed for most medium to large-sized web apps
Install it once, globally
npm install -g create-react-redux-router-app
*create-react-redux-router-app
relies on create-react-app
which will need to be installed separately. Instructions can be found here.
To create a new app, run
create-react-redux-router-app my-app-name
create-react-app
This project is a thin wrapper around Facebook's create-react-app but adds the following common libraries needed for most medium to large-sized web apps:
create-react-app
This project is not a replacement for create-react-app
, but rather a thin wrapper around it. Apps created using this project are not ejected out of create-react-app
and can still be upgraded to newer versions of react-scripts
as needed. This project also includes all the same scripts included with create-react-app
for running a development server and building production versions.
create-react-redux-router-app
makes no assumptions about the backend of your app. This project is opinionated, however, about the packages you should use for state-management and url routing.
create-react-redux-router-app
not only installs the latest versions of the above-described packages, but also overwrites some of the default template files included with create-react-app
, specifically:
connect()
function from react-redux
and connects <App />
to the Redux store.<App/>
component included with create-react-app
in the <Provider/>
component imported from react-redux
, and the <BrowserRouter/>
component imported from react-router-dom
.createStore()
from redux
and exports as the default export a Redux store with a basic reducer.Because you'll save so much time not having to write boilerplate code to setup your state management and routing that you can afford the extra characters in your terminal command.
Also it's descriptive.
