React Tutorial

Development Setup Instructions

  1. Install the node requirements.

     $ npm install

  2. Create an empty _comments.json file.

     $ cat > _comments.json << EOF
 [
 ]
 EOF

  3. Create a python virtual environment.

     $ virtualenv env
 $ source env/bin/activate

  4. Install requirements.

     $ pip install -r requirements.txt

Running the Development Server and Gulp

After following the Development Setup Instructions, you can now run the Flask dev server and gulp-watch to watch your JSX react file src/comments.js for changes. If you have the LiveReload plugin for Chrome your browser will automatically reload.

In your first terminal window or tab run:

$ python app.py

In your second terminal window or tab run:

$ gulp

Now you can open your browser to http://127.0.0.1:8000/ and you should be able to add comments.
