to run the project, using:
npm install
npm start
then try it in browser in http://localhost:3000
babel
, webpack
and express
for server side rendering, pretty usual.
css-modules
for reusable css blocks, instead of using Sass.
a few improvements could be done later.
Also Facebook got a tool/script create-react-app
which would be really handy for new project, instead of spending times on webpack setups.
