chido v0.5.882
Chido
Build hybrid, fast and cool React
based apps
current: alpha
Installation
#npm
npm install chido react
#yarn
yarn add chido react
## for now react-dom is included in the chido package
package.json
"scripts":{
"start": "chido start",
"build": "chido build"
}
How does it work?
chido
reads all the .js
files in the ./src/pages
directory (a very common pattern in static site generators) and builds a static site from them, if you want you can also export a @reach/router
component from and chido
will build an .html
file for each Router
or React
component and since it supports code-splitting for .js
and .css
(incluidng .sass
and .scss
) the first print is really fast.
How will my app look like?
// .src/pages/movies.js
import React from 'react'
import { Router, Link } from 'chido'
const MoviesList = () => (
<main>
<h1>Cool movies!!!</h1>
<ul>
<Link to='/movies/the-two-towers'>The Two Towers</Link>
<Link to='/movies/pirates-of-silicon-valley'>Pirates of Silicon Valley</Link>
<Link to='/the-wolf-of-wall-street'>The Wolf of Wall Street!!!</Link>
</ul>
</main>
)
const CoolMovie = ({ movieName }) => (
<div>
<h1>{`${movieName} is a really cool movie!!!`}</h1>
<Link to='/movies'>Back to movies</Link>
</div>
)
export default function MoviesRouter() {
return (
<Router>
<MoviesList path='/' />
<CoolMovie path=':movieName' />
</Router>
)
}
file in ./src/pages | outputs in ./public |
---|---|
index.js | index.html |
movies.js // MoviesList | movies/index.html // It's static |
movies.js // CoolMovie | movies/movieName/index.html // It's dynamic |
How do I access an hybrid site?
To make sure this works, you need to setup a router in your server, but not be afraid, I've done succesful tests with .htaccess
(and chido
comes with an automatic .htaccess router builder) in shared hosting and it's really fast (as you'd expect any static generatedd site to be). The trick is in redirecting all the dynamic looking requests to the static server location:
Examples
requested url | served fiile and directory |
---|---|
/movies/episode-iv/ | /movies/movieName/index.html |
/movies/pulp-fiction/ | the same as above |
/movies/the-ring/ | the same as above |
Features
- Code spliting (also valid for
.css
) - Fast
HMR
with newestreact-hot-loader
(getting ready for hooks!!!) - Chunk prefetching thanks to
chido
-link
Service worker
chido-link
As any other React based site generator, chido
comes with it's own Link
to move across chido
's pages. it allows us to make a chunk prefetching which starts when the user hovers or clicks over it.
import React from 'react'
import { Link } from 'chido'
export default function About() {
return (
<main>
<p>español: React es chido</p>
<p>english: React is cool</p>
</main>
)
