React-Material-Site

A VERY opinionated website framework built with react and material design which is highly configurable and high level components in order to speed development of new projects. You won't win any awards for a site built with this, but you might just be able to have that functionality you needed yesterday.

Some tech used

• Material Components Web - The foundation for all UI elements is built with new and shiny (and still Alpha) material components for web published by Google.
• RMWC - The wrapper for MDC-web made by James Friedman, which adds some extra functionality and a very clean API for using components in a react app.
• Create React App - The amazing create-react-app by Facebook that manages build and test running without 100000 dependencies you have you manage yourself.
• json-google-docs - Converts a google docs into structured JSON and allows you to use this content within your site, functions as a CMS editor for the site.
• form-google-sheets - Allows you to post data to an endpoint that populates a google sheet so you can deploy a basic website with a contact form with no server.
