Setup

1. Install dependencies

I use nvm for least-headache-inducing Node version management. If using nvm:

1. Install nvm here
2. Install Node LTS: nvm install --lts. If already installed: nvm use --lts
3. npm install

2. Start server:

npm start && open http://0.0.0.0:3000/

This app uses webpack dashboard, so please note the following:

If using OS X Terminal.app: make sure that View → Allow Mouse Reporting is enabled, otherwise scrolling through logs and modules won't work. If your version of Terminal.app doesn't have this feature, you may want to check out an alternative such as iTerm2.

3. Recommended: Install React dev tools for Chrome here.

After making updates:

1. Write tests and run them:

npm test

2. Lint your code:

npm run lint

Using eslint-config-airbnb.

3. Generate production build:

npm run build

Build will be placed in the build folder.

Make sure to change publicPath in webpack.config.js:

output: {
  path: buildPath,
  publicPath: '/public-app/',
  filename: 'app-[hash].js',
}

3. Preview build with

npm run preview

Notes on Babel:

Avoid Stage 0 features. This is that place where cutting-edge slithers into not worth it, and eventually into well that was dumb. Once the committee drops a proposal (chances of this are highest for Stage 0 features and go down as the Stage level goes up), Babel is dropping support for it, which means you're now stuck with your very own ecmascript extension with no transpiling support for it. Not to mention the extra tooling complexity inherent to brand-new features.

Todos:

• Add tests.
• Comply with ESLint warnings
• Bump up to v4 of D3 and use only necessary modules.
