react-es6-commons

...is an ES6+ library containing classes you can extend from to build React front-end experiences with ease and simplicity. This library heavily encourages and leads you to a best-practice driven application architecture that keeps things simple.

This library is currently considered beta. Please decide carefully, if you really want to use it in production yet. However, I do so in my own projects and it works well for me.

Setup

Given that you already installed Node.js and npm in the most recent versions: Just create a new, empty directory and call:

> npm install react-es6-commons    

...to install all the required dependencies.

Because we really love to keep things simple, there is a boilerplate project you may want to use. Just call:

> cp -r node_modules/react-es6-commons/boilerplate/ .

...to create a simple boilerplate project covering a best-practice project setup.

Note: Take care to exactly use the command line above. A missing "-r" won't copy sub-directories. Adding * to the end of the source path would result in a missing .babelrc file.

Then run:

> npm install

...to resolve any dependency of the boilerplate app.

Now, we are ready to dig into the code. To read more about the boilerplate app's architecture, goto boilerplate.
