slush-pages-react

a generator for static react pages using browserify

Wait, what is this?

This is a project generator for a frontend react project. You can optionally deploy your project to github pages as a set of static files. If you need a backend, that's up to you to sort out.

The template project:

• uses browserify to bundle your source.
• allows jsx and es6 syntax which will be transpiled by babelify.
• has a development server, budo which transpiles your code and has live-reloading.
• has a handy script to allow easy publishing to github pages: npm run deploy.
• uses tinify to make your deployed builds as small as possible.

Dependency Versions:
