This is sample project for learning React.
The sample project includes a React web application with a mock RESTful API within an Nx workspace by NRWL.
The React application uses redux-toolkit and axios libs to manage state and handle server communication. The React application also uses material-ui for React components and layout.
- Git
- Node.js and NPM – we recommend using NVM (Linux/Mac) or NVM-Windows (Windows)
git clone https://github.com/simpulton/hello-react
cd hello-react
npm i
npm run serve:all
The serve:all command is a convenience methods that runs the serve:api and serve:web commands concurrently. You can run each command separately if you need to.
"serve:api": "nx run api:serve",
"serve:web": "nx serve --open",
"serve:all": "concurrently \"npm run serve:api\" \"npm run serve:web\""
The web application will open to http://localhost:4200 in your browser.
You can see the API by navigating to http://localhost:3333/api/ in your browser.
Note: the above terminal commands are for Mac. Remember to substitute the appropriate commands for your OS.
Nx supports many plugins which add capabilities for developing different types of applications and different tools.
These capabilities include generating applications, libraries, etc as well as the devtools to test, and build projects as well.
Below are our core plugins:
- React
npm install --save-dev @nrwl/react
- Web (no framework frontends)
npm install --save-dev @nrwl/web
- Angular
npm install --save-dev @nrwl/angular
- Nest
npm install --save-dev @nrwl/nest
- Express
npm install --save-dev @nrwl/express
- Node
npm install --save-dev @nrwl/node
There are also many community plugins you could add.
Run nx g @nrwl/react:app my-app to generate an application.
You can use any of the plugins above to generate applications as well.
When using Nx, you can create multiple applications and libraries in the same workspace.
Run nx g @nrwl/react:lib my-lib to generate a library.
You can also use any of the plugins above to generate libraries as well.
Libraries are shareable across libraries and applications. They can be imported from @hello-presolved/mylib.
Run nx serve my-app for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.
Run nx g @nrwl/react:component my-component --project=my-app to generate a new component.
Run nx build my-app to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory. Use the --prod flag for a production build.
Run nx test my-app to execute the unit tests via Jest.
Run nx affected:test to execute the unit tests affected by a change.
Run ng e2e my-app to execute the end-to-end tests via Cypress.
Run nx affected:e2e to execute the end-to-end tests affected by a change.
Run nx dep-graph to see a diagram of the dependencies of your projects.
