es6-react-redux-universal-template

A simple template powered by webpack that allows you to use

  • ES6 client and server side
  • React
  • Redux
  • Isomorphic architecture
  • Webpack
  • Express.js
  • SCSS + compass support

I'm trying to KISS because I've seen far too many es6 projects with thousands of dependencies / optimizations that are way too hard to approach.

As I'm learning this tech stack I will create tags on the steps that took me to the repository's HEAD

Installation

Just run npm install and use npm run dev to run the development server with hot reload.

Visit localhost:8080 after the bundle is marked as VALID

TODOs

  • Find out how webpack is building the production's assets
  • Go Isomorphic (using react server/client side)
  • Find out how react handles routing and enable pushState
  • Use Redux instead of plain flux
  • Test coverage
