Hey everyone,

I finally managed to allocate some personal time to work on this major update of the tutorial.

I have created a separate repository for the final boilerplate code of the tutorial.

Before I start updating the instructions of the tutorial, I would appreciate some feedback regarding this boilerplate.

The major changes that happened compared to the final code of the tutorial v1 are:

  • Gulp is gone, replaced by NPM scripts.
  • Express has been added, with template strings for static HTML
  • Support for development environment with Nodemon and production environment with PM2. Minification or sourcemaps depending on the environment via Webpack. Gzip compression enabled.
  • Webpack Dev Server added, with Hot Module Replacement and react-hot-loader
  • Added an asynchronous call example with redux-thunk integration.
  • Linting / typechecking / testing is not launched at every file change anymore, but triggered by Git Hooks via Husky. This makes your workflow much smoother, while still protecting your repository from bad code.
  • Some chapters have been combined to make it easier to maintain the tutorial.
  • Replaced Chai and Mocha by Jest.
  • Added React-Router, Server-Side rendering, react-helmet.
  • Renamed all "dog" things and replaced it by "hello" things. It's a Hello World app after all.
  • Added Twitter Bootstrap, JSS, and react-jss for styling.
  • Added a Websocket example with socket.io.
  • Added optional Heroku, Travis, and Coveralls integrations.

Thank you!
