$ create-opinionated-app

What does it do

All app generator that was created so that bootstrapping new pet project or examples for conferences and creating new open source project for awesome GitHub community is easier.

Keep in mind that this generator is strongly opinionated. Javascript community is most likely the liveliest. We have amazing arsenal of libraries to use. However, I would like to standardize my toolset across all projects.

React Applications

All of us need Typescript, CSS-in-JS, code quality tools and basic configuration for unit testing. This generator creates following applications:

• gatsby
• create-react-app
• next.js
• react-native

Core Project Dependencies

• Strong types
• Webpack, Babel and other essential libraries...
• 💅 Styled Components for every React application
• Routers [optional] - react-router and for native react-native-navigation or react-navigation

Code Quality Tools

You can find config files for these hand-crafted code quality resources here. ❤

• Eslint and Stylelint
• Prettier
• BrowserList
• EditorConfig
• 🐶 Husky
• CommitLint
• LintStaged

Testing

• Jest for cross-platform testing
• 🐐 React Testing Library
• Cypress E2E tests for web applications
• Detox E2E tests for native applications

Node Applications

Backend projects are in a way much simpler to setup than frontend projects because libraries that are commonly used are more stable and Node environment is more predictable.

• node-cli (minimal node.js + typescript)
• nest.js

Core Project Dependencies

• Strong types
