#TIY Starter Kit

Lightweight scaffolding and build tools to quickly and easily develop a web application.

• transpiles scss into css
• transpiles es6 and jsx into es5
• concatenates all required/imported modules together into one minified file

• runs a simple express server that is deployable on heroku

##Getting started

• clone this repo with git clone git@github.com:magentanova/tiy-starter-kit.git THE-LOCAL-FOLDER-YOU-WANT-TO-CREATE
• cd into the local folder
• disconnect from my remote repo and point to your own (see Publishing)
• npm install
• npm run go

• that's it! visit http://localhost:3000 to make sure it's working

##Workflow

• you'll only write code in the files in the src/ folder
• every time you save in that folder, your code will be read and transpiled into the dist/ folder. only files in dist/ will be served up to the browser.

• view and test your app at http://localhost:3000

##Publishing

• disconnect your local repo from this one with git remote remove origin
• hub create YOUR-APP-NAME -- this will simultaneously (1) create you a remote repo with the given name and (2) create a local reference connecting the directory you're in to the remote you just created
• add, commit and push per usual

##Deploying

The easiest thing to do is deploy to heroku. Once you have an account and you've installed the heroku command line tools, simply run:

• heroku create YOUR-APP-NAME
• git push heroku master

Have fun!
