This looks like a nice OSx app as webapp development stack.

Nice - I do a lot of 2-4h small projects and every month I waste time upgrading my boilerplate. I'll test this, but I love the concept.

Feature requests: - react-router - optionally, bootstrap - easy to build & push on github (e.g., default configure with /#/ urls

Thanks! I'll definitely look into react-router / bootstrap.

And that's the same reason I built this - I have a lot of electron apps I want to build, but no quick starting point. I'm glad it's something others are finding useful as well!

I'm not a user of any of those stacks, but I love the name! :)

Sounds like a stack Reggie Watts would create.

But then there is the node/js fronted community to one up everyone.

Does your stack manage complexity, or add too it... Why is such a stack necessary. I bet you don't even ARIA bro...

The current state of js libraries may be a bit unfortunate and often frustratingly complex to manage. That's no reason to get all snappy though – the rails stack has about the same number of components, they're just integrated more tightly.

It's a Pokemon name.

Thanks for putting this together. Feature request: A branch that includes redux. https://github.com/reactjs/redux

vulpino2• 10 years ago

I'll look into it, thank you!

The reactuate react+redux+stuff stack may provide useful prior art therefore.

I'm using this: https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate

I find it excellent.

"Gets the stupid work done so you can actually make something." I really like that line. I hate boilerplates in general but that line just draws me in to use it.

Nice. I built something similar recently, though not as fleshed out. It does use webpack for hot reloading on save: https://github.com/KevinGrandon/electron-boilerplate

And here is another popular boilerplate: https://github.com/chentsulin/electron-react-boilerplate

I thought all the cool kids were using webpack instead of browserify now?

glifchits• 10 years ago

And using npm scripts instead of gulp?

progx• 10 years ago

You use npm scripts instead of grunt not gulp. ;)
