JavaScript project boilerplate

This project will ease start your node and javascript application development to the minimum. All you need to do is to start your docker container.

Install project

Clone this GitHub repository.

Run development mode

Compose files are prepared to serve first the development environment, to run in develop mode just start docker-compose command:

docker-compose up -d 

You can now open your browser and go to the http://localhost/ url. The project should be prepared for development. You can even start your debugging with NiM or just go to the docker logs -f and get the url address for DevTools debugging.

There is also predefined Visual Studio Code configuration, you just need to go to this branch .vscode-config.

Production mode

If you want to test how this application will be exposed on production you can try to run our production container setup. This will first build the app and then expose it via node as static files to end user.

docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d --force-recreate

Important: Please start first the dev up to build the proper image.

Heavy libraries

Sometimes we don't need to have all those js goodies at once so here are some extracted libraries that are slowing down the development build process and maybe somebody does not requires it all.

• Flow - With installed binaries and webpack loader
• Husky - You can use it if you want to have the possibility to use git hooks, but be aware about the limitations, you can read more about in Readme there
