create-react-extention-app v1.0.2
Create React Extention App
Create React Extention apps with no build configuration.
- Creating an App – How to create a new extention.
Create React App works on all browsers.
Quick Overview
npx create-react-extention-app my-app
cd my-app
npm start
(npx comes with npm 5.2+ and higher, see instructions for older npm versions)
When you’re ready to deploy to production, create a minified bundle with npm run build
.
Get Started Immediately
You don’t need to install or configure tools like webpack or Babel. They are preconfigured and hidden so that you can focus on the code.
Create a project, and you’re good to go.
Creating an App
You’ll need to have Node 14.0.0 or later version on your local development machine (but it’s not required on the server). We recommend using the latest LTS version. You can use nvm (macOS/Linux) or nvm-windows to switch Node versions between different projects.
To create a new app, you may choose one of the following methods:
npx
npx create-react-extention-app my-app
It will create a directory called my-app
inside the current folder.
Inside that directory, it will generate the initial project structure and install the transitive dependencies:
my-app
├── README.md
├── node_modules
├── package.json
├── .gitignore
├── public
│ ├── logo.png
│ └── manifest.json
└── src
├── App.css
├── App.tsx
├── App.test.js
├── options.tsx
├── background.ts
├── index.tsx
└── setupTests.js
No configuration or complicated folder structures, only the files you need to build your app. Once the installation is done, you can open your project folder:
cd my-app
Inside the newly created project, you can run some built-in commands:
npm start
or yarn start
Runs the app in development mode.
The page will automatically reload if you make changes to the code. You will see the build errors and lint warnings in the console.
npm test
or yarn test
Runs the test watcher in an interactive mode. By default, runs tests related to files changed since the last commit.
npm run build
or yarn build
Builds the app for production to the build
folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.
The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed.
Philosophy
One Dependency: There is only one build dependency. It uses webpack, Babel, ESLint, and other amazing projects, but provides a cohesive curated experience on top of them.
No Configuration Required: You don't need to configure anything. A reasonably good configuration of both development and production builds is handled for you so you can focus on writing code.
What’s Included?
Your environment will have everything you need to build a modern single-page React app:
- React, JSX, ES6, TypeScript and Flow syntax support.
- Language extras beyond ES6 like the object spread operator.
- Autoprefixed CSS, so you don’t need
-webkit-
or other prefixes. - A fast interactive unit test runner with built-in support for coverage reporting.
- A live development server that warns about common mistakes.
- A build script to bundle JS, CSS, and images for production, with hashes and sourcemaps.
- An offline-first service worker and a web app manifest, meeting all the Progressive Web App criteria. (Note: Using the service worker is opt-in as of
react-scripts@2.0.0
and higher) - Hassle-free updates for the above tools with a single dependency.
