Make-react-project NPM

Make React Project

Simple React project initiator based on minimal-reactjs-boilerplate by Nikhil-Kumaran.

Thanks to him this project exists and I am thankful to have found his posts on create-react-app.

How To

Install make-react-project with one of the methods below
- yarn global add make-react-project
- npm i -g make-react-project
Navigate to the directory you made
- cd ${your-project-name}
Develop your project

Commands

Make React Project has two script commands atm, dev will launch a development setup on port 8080 in your default browser and build which will compile the site into a build folder in the project directory.

Comments

Fundementally yarn is not NECESSARY for this to work but it is what I use as my default package management system. I recommend installing it but if enough requests are made I can change the script to use npm instead.

If you get an error it is likely one of three reasons:

yarn is not installed (yarn is an alternative to npm, so installing it globally gives you options)
the folder name already exists, and since it does not remove folders, you will need to make a new name or delete the old folder.
