Responder React

The awesome new Responder web framework includes great support for serving
static files, so this project shows how easy it is to integrate a React
single page app.

Features

• 🍪 quick start – create your own project in less than a minute using cookiecutter (example repo & website)
• 🚀 quick to launch – use a "Deploy to Heroku" button in the generated README.md (looks like this) – it's magic ✨ (actually multiple buildpacks & a custom build step)
• 🐳 Docker support – get a dev environment up in no time with docker-compose up
• 🔨 modern JS tooling – a seamless workflow using Parcel
• 🔀 frontend routing – using React Router you can elegantly serve different React components on different urls
• 📻 server routing – trusted old server-side routing still works, so go ahead & build the admin interface without any JS

Usage

You can quickly reuse the scaffolding for your own project using cookiecutter:

pip install -U cookiecutter
cookiecutter gh:metakermit/responder-react # use a project name with no spaces

You will find further instructions in the generated project's README.md, but in short all you do is:

bin/install
bin/start

or

docker-compose up

And you'll have your Responder server serving the React app on http://localhost:5042/.
React Router is used for the frontend routing.
To demonstrate how the app should work, it consists of two pages:

• ShoppingList running on /

• About running on /about
