Setup and Installation

As this is boilerplate, you probably want to fork the project. Given that these projects will be in the same organization, it has few additional steps.

git clone https://github.com/QuantifiedSelfless/qs-client-boilerplate.git
mv qs-personalized-news 
cd qs-personalized-news

Create a new project with your desired name on Github, qs-personalized-news for example.

git remote set-url origin https://github.com/QuantifiedSelfless/qs-personalized-news
git push origin master

Usage

go ahead and look at the package.json "scripts" section. These commands are defined there.

• npm run dev - starts the webpack-dev-server (supports hot-module reloading) at localhost:8080
• npm run prod - builds the app in dist/
• npm run clean - deletes dist and dev_build
• npm run tests - doesn't do anything at moment, but theoretically runs your Mocha/Chai scripts in the test directory

Sources and Motivation

1. Fullstack React/Redux Tutorial - this tutorial will take 10+ hours, but is one of the best I've found.
2. A Guide to Flexbox
3. React Webpack Cookbook
4. The End of Global CSS

If you read through these 4 (the first one being by far the most time-intensive), you should have a good understanding of this projects structure.
Feel free to edit/branch/do whatever with this repo. Don't feel like the current version is the end-all-be-all, there are countless improvemetns to make.
