Getting Started
To get started, follow these steps:
- Clone this repository to your local machine.
- Install the dependencies by running
npm install
orpnpm install
depending on your preferred package manager. - Run the development server by running
npm run dev
orpnpm dev
. - Open your browser and navigate to
http://localhost:3000
to see the widget in action.
Structure
The project is structured as follows:
.
āāā dist/ # Output directory for the widget
āāā public/ # Public assets for the widget
āāā src/ # Source code for the widget
ā āāā App.css # CSS file for the development Vite app
ā āāā App.tsx # Entry point for the development Vite app
ā āāā widget/ # Source code for the widget
ā ā āāā components/ # Components for the widget
ā ā āāā lib/ # Utility functions for the widget
ā ā āāā index.tsx # Entry point for the widget
ā ā āāā styles/ # CSS styles for the widget
- Widget code: The source code for the widget is located in the
src/widget
directory. - Development app code: The source code for the development app is located in the
src
directory. Useful for development and testing your widget in a Vite app. - Widget distribution: The widget is bundled into the
dist
directory. - Public assets: Public assets like images, fonts, and CSS files are located in the
public
directory.
Cloning the Repository
To clone the repository, you can use the following command:
git clone https://github.com/makerkit/react-widget-starter.git
Installing Dependencies
To install the dependencies, you can use the following commands:
npm install
or
pnpm install
Running the Development Server
To run the development server, you can use the following command:
npm run dev
or
pnpm dev
Opening the Widget in Your Browser
Once the development server is running, you can open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000
to see the widget in action.
Bundling the Widget
To bundle the widget, you can use the following command:
npm run build:widget
or
pnpm build:widget
This will create a dist
directory with the bundled widget files.
For running the widget in production mode, you can use the following command:
npm run build:widget:production
or
pnpm build:widget:production
Production mode will use the environment variables from the .env.production
file.
Testing the bundled widget
To test the bundled widget, you can use the following command:
npm run serve
or
pnpm serve
This will start a local server and serve the widget at http://localhost:33333/index.html
.
Deploying the Widget to a CDN
Depending on which provider you want to use, you can deploy the widget to a CDN, or simply host it on your own server.
Copy the bundled files from the dist
directory to your server and have the consumers of the widget use the script tags to load the widget.
If your widget is hosted on a CDN, you can use the following script tag:
<script async src="https://example.com/widget.js"></script>
