Create React App Template

Run this command to use this template:

npx create-react-app your-project --template sls

This is a Create React App bootstrapped with my preferred setup of ESLint, Prettier, and a bunch of libraries common to most projects, such as lodash, date-fns, core-js, validator, etc.

It comes with cypress.json and jsconfig.json that sets the src folder as the root url for React and Cypress.

Setup

After installing this template with CRA, do the following:

Cut and paste the contents of pkg.json into your package.json. The husky, lint-staged, and jest configurations are not currently supported by templates. Also, the CRA team doesn't like separating dev dependencies, but I do, so you need these, as well. You can delete the pkg.json file after you're finished.

Run yarn upd. This will make sure that all of the libraries are updated to the latest versions.

Available Scripts

In the project directory, you can run:

yarn start

Runs the app in the development mode.

yarn cypress

Launches the Cypress test runner.

yarn upd

Update all packages to the latest versions and launches the development server.

yarn test

Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode. See the section about running tests for more information.

yarn test-cov-view
