kestryl

A command-line utility to rapidly create thin, full-stack ES6 single-page websites with minimal bloat. Useful for rapid prototyping.

Powered by babel-node, jspm, mithril, and koa-router. Has optional react support.

TODO

1. Add ESLint
2. Add live-browser-refresh capabilities upon filechange
3. Sequester css and images into assets directory. Show example of styling in JS instead of css; encourage minimal asset footprint.
4. Use async.js for waterfall pattern in managing initialization flow instead of nesting across files.
5. Make the emitted index.html from kestryl bundle include changes to the development index.html (assets, analytics inclusions, etc).
