Rexpack
React, Express, and Webpack Boilerplate App
Overview
Rexpack is a minimal Express, Webpack, and React boilerplate app. It serves an image, adds styling, and includes basic functionality to showcase everything working at a basic level. This project can serve as a template for more complex applications. It utilizes Node (ES6+), Express, Webpack, React, Jest, and Enzyme. Rexpack offers Hot Module Reloading and can be easily deployed to Google App Engine with a single command. It provides both development and production builds, with the production build outputting a minified, uglified bundle that includes images encoded in Base64 directly into the CSS file. Rexpack can be run locally on a machine or deployed to the Google App Engine Flexible Environment.
