The simple, customizable news aggregator. (Currently in development.)

Introduction

inkie is (or is going to be) the simple, customizable news aggregator. It's being built with Node.js, React, Babel, and webpack. Contributions are always welcome!

Installation

Install with git (recommended)

# Clone inkie.
$ git clone git://github.com/qwamber/inkie.git

Install with NPM

# Install inkie.
$ npm install inkie

Setup

Start the development server

The easiest way to get started with inkie is to run the development build.

• It uses webpack-dev-middleware to automatically bundle edited files

• It automatically reloads a web browser when changes are made.

# Change directory.
$ cd inkie

# Run the development server on `localhost:8080`.
$ npm run start-dev

Start the production server

You can also run inkie in production mode.

• This will turn off the automatic bundling and refreshing done by webpack-dev-middleware

• It will start the Express.js server in with NODE_ENV set to "production".

# Build and run the production server on `localhost:8080`.
$ npm run build && npm start
