React Starter Kit — "isomorphic" web app boilerplate
React Starter Kit is an opinionated boilerplate for web development built on top of Node.js, Express, GraphQL and React, containing modern web development tools such as Webpack, Babel and Browsersync. Helping you to stay productive following the best practices. A solid starting point for both professionals and newcomers to the industry.

Customization
The master branch of React Starter Kit doesn't include a Flux implementation or any other
advanced integrations. Nevertheless, we have some integrations available to you in feature
branches that you can use either as a reference or merge into your project:
- feature/redux — isomorphic
Redux by Pavel Lang
(see how to integrate Redux) (based on
master) - feature/react-intl —
isomorphic Redux and React Intl by Pavel Lang
(see how to integrate React Intl) (based on
feature/redux) - feature/bootstrap3 —
Simplest possible integration of react-bootstrap
by Pavel Lang (based on
master)
If you think that any of these features should be on master, or vice versa, some features should
removed from the master branch, please let us know.
We love your feedback!
