Primary LanguageJavaScript

Using Parcel instead of Create-React-App

Steps

  • Create an empty folder
  • type: npm init -y (creates a npm package.json)
  • type: npm i -D parcel (installs Parcel)
  • type: npm i react react-dom (installs React libraries)
  • create a src folder
  • create a index.js, App.jsx and index.html file
    • copy the contents of what are in these files (minus the code in App.jsx)
  • in package.json create a "script" (this will run your server to render your React):
    • "dev": "parcel src/index.html --open"
  • create a .gitignore file
    • copy what is in this file
  • create a local git repo (you should know this already):
    • git init
    • git add .
    • git commit -m "message"
  • type npm run dev (this will run your React App)
  • NO MORE NEEDING CREATE REACT APP!!! :)
