Everything you love about Create React App plus server-side code support (SSR, GraphQL API, etc) and config overrides (Babel, Webpack, etc.). See the demo project.
React App SDK is intended to be used as a drop-in replacement for react-scripts NPM module.
If you want to add server-side code into your application built with Create React App, all you have
to do is to replace react-scripts dev dependency with react-app-tools plus provide one more
entry point for Node.js as demonstrated below:
.
├── build/ # Compiled output
├── src/ # Universal application source code
│ ├── components/ # Shared React.js components
│ │ ├── /App/ # - The top-level React component
│ │ ├── /Button/ # - Some other UI element
│ │ └── ... # - etc.
│ ├── server/ # Node.js app
│ │ ├── ssr.js # - Server-side rendering, e.g. ReactDOMServer.renderToString(<App />)
│ │ ├── api.js # - GraphQL API endpoint
│ │ └── index.js # - Node.js app entry point
│ └── index.js # Client-side app entry point, e.g. ReactDOM.hydrate(<App />, container)

`);
});
if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') {
app.listen(process.env.PORT || 8080);
} else {
module.exports.default = app;
}You can launch the app in development mode by running:
$ npm install
$ npm startThen open http://localhost:3000/ to see your app.
When you’re ready to deploy to production, create a minified bundle with npm run build.

Create webpack.config.js file in the root of your project that extends the
default Webpack configuration. For example:
module.exports = () => {
const [
browserConfig,
serverConfig,
] = require('react-app-tools/config/webpack');
return [
browserConfig,
{
...serverConfig,
plugins: {
...serverConfig.plugins.concat(
new LimitChunkCountPlugin({ maxChunks: 1 })
),
},
},
];
