indoqa-react-redux v2.4.0

Indoqa React/Redux Archetype

This project is a ready-to-use setup for React/Redux web applications we use at Indoqa. It is based on the Redux todos example and inspired by a lot of good ideas from the este dev stack. The main focus is to create a consistent environment for client side web applications that are consuming business logic using REST services over HTTP.

Features

We invent nothing new, this archetype is just a composition of useful libraries, frameworks, tools and plugins. In addition to vanilla React and Redux, we set up the following:

• indoqa-react-app for a basic redux and router setup:
  • redux-observable for side-effects
  • react-router to support multiple pages and history management
  • Fela as our css-in-js library and theming
  • dev tools for logging and debugging
• Ramda for immutable state transformation
• Reselect to access Redux state
• Flow for static typing of Javascript
• Jest as test framework
• indoqa-webpack build system
  • babel to support es6 syntax ans language features
  • eslint using eslint-config-indoqa based on the well documented airbnb rules
  • hot reloading of React components, Fela themes, epics and reducers
• three demo pages:
  • one with an example of fetching data from an external webservice (geonames timezone),
  • two showing a local todo list based on Dan Abramov excellent introduction into Redux and
  • three demonstrating more advances usages of redux-observable (cancellation, debouncing).
• a simple and clean application layout separating application setup, features and common components and following the atomic design methodology by Brad Frost.
