Plop

this allows you to import this Header component with import { Header } from 'path/Header' without Header/Header. Creating this structure manually is annoying, so one will benefit from some code generators like plop or hygen.

Plop

ReactPlay uses PlopJS to automate the play creation. It automatically helps create the scaffolding, setting imports, and initial code structure for the creators. The creator can import the project into their favourite code editor like VS Code and start implementing the play logic. It's simple. Give it a try.

Code generation for common tasks (like add data field, refactorings).

Yeah, I've been using bash + sed + json, and, more recently, plop.js.

Using Create React App, let's create a react project by running the following command in your terminal:

Thinking that the demo app should be practical but not overwelmed by details, its React client side would be constructed with commonly seen features, such as styling, routing, data fetching and assets loading, but at a limited cost. Meanwhile, it would be deployed on a widely accepted FaaS provider that has an easy setup. So, I'm going to use create-react-app(CRA) to initialize the demo app, enhance it, then get it deployed on Netlify with SSR added.

Now, we’ll create a React app with Create React App’s official TypeScript template to learn how to debug TypeScript apps built with modern frontend frameworks. Run the following command to create a new TypeScript-React app:

We're creating a frontend project using the famous Create-React-App. And what's the best way to start? By creating an empty react project, of course! Let's create a component:

The most common way of spinning up a React application is probably using create-react-app. We’ll be using Vite (pronounced like “veet”) instead. But fret not, it’s just as simple — but more efficient.

Look at the most recent code change, the 5.0.1 release. It's simply a maintenance release and fixes a few bugs. This was almost a year ago, which is quite long in the JS world. We're not writing Rust where things are infinitely backward compatible (and even that has outdated packages). Other PRs are not being merged either, except for documentation ones.

We'll be using Vite to develop our app, but you can also use Create React App or any other tool you like. To scaffold a new React app with Vite you need to do:

If I choose React as a used framework, Ionic’s boilerplate is based on Create React App. Because of it I want a tool which edits Webpack’s configuration without ejecting CRA’s configuration.
