🚀 Using this CRA template

🤔 CRA introduction

React officially support to create your custom templates for the Create React App (CRA) utility.

This Codely template is just a way to optimize even more the default CRA template adding the bare minimum features we consider necessary on every React project.

⚡ How to create your React app

Create your React app with TypeScript and taking advantage of the scaffolding provided by this template executing this npx command in your terminal:

npx create-react-app my-app --template @codelytv/cra-template-codely

Or, if you prefer to use Yarn instead of npm:

yarn create react-app --template @codelytv/cra-template-codely my-app

It will create a my-app folder inside the directory where you execute the command. You will find a README.md in the root of your generated project with the instructions on how to build, test, and run your application 🤟

🌩️ What does CRA do while creating the project

The my-app created with the npx command will contain a ready-to-use application thanks to the magic CRA does behind the scenes:

Copy everything inside this CRA template folder into your project root directory
Create the project package.json based on the dependencies that CRA needs such as React itself in the latest version possible, plus the dependencies added by Codely in the template.json
Create the project .gitignore file based on the template/gitignore
Depending on if you have used Yarn or npm while creating the project, it will have available the corresponding commands and config files in order to run the generated app
Install all the dependencies
