Simple usage

npm i siegel

Create app.js file:

import { createRoot } from 'react-dom/client'

const root = document.getElementById('root')
createRoot(root)
    .render('Hello Siegel!')

Bootstrap the app with the next command:

npx siegel run

Now your application is hosting on localhost:3000 in watch mode and ready for development!

You may also define NodeJS dev server using --server flag:

// server.js

function appServer(app, { express }) {
    console.log('Custom server is ready')
}

module.exports = appServer

In console run:

npx siegel run --server server.js

        and client_build(as webpack output folder).
        Default is: path.join(process.cwd(), 'dist')
    */

Demo project init

Quick way to start your development journey with everything you need right after project initialization is Demo project. You may init the demo project having Siegel installed localy:

npx siegel init

Here we initialize a demo project in a current dirrectory along with package.json (if not yet exists) Now you have project skeleton with preconfigured Siegel in it! Use various npm commands from the new package.json to perform build, code validation and static serving in development or production modes Bootstrap newly created project with:

npm start
