First steps

Install NodeJS

NodeJS can be installed from their official web page or from brew.

Use Create React App

CRA or create-react-app enables to the user to have a basic structure. There is also one boilerplate for TypeScript:

$ npx create-react-app [name_app] --script-version=react-script-ts

This will create a project with the following structure:

node_modules
public
├── favicon.ico
├── index.html
└── manifest.json
src
├── App.css
├── App.js
├── App.test.js
├── index.css
├── index.js
├── logo.svg
└── registerServiceWorker.js
package.json
package-lock.json
README.md

// TODO: add what does each one mean

The only dependencies installed in the current project are:

• react

• react-dom

• react-scripts
