Overview

The Reavel setup offers a seamless environment to develop, build, and run applications using React and Laravel on a single server without the complications of using Laravel Mix. With this setup, developers can efficiently manage their projects using Laravel 5.8 and React 16.8.4, allowing for an integrated development experience that connects the powerful features of both frameworks.

Setting up the Reavel project is straightforward, allowing developers to quickly deploy applications locally. The support for Hot Module Replacement (HMR) ensures that changes made in the React components reflect in real-time, providing a smooth development workflow. Whether you are an experienced developer looking to customize your setup or a beginner in need of a solid foundation, Reavel paves the way for easy integration of React and Laravel.

  • Simple Setup Process: Clone the repository and execute a few commands to get your project up and running quickly.
  • Hot Module Replacement (HMR): Automatically refreshes your app as you make changes to the React files, enhancing your development experience.
  • Local Server Support: Use php artisan serve along with React's compilation to run both frameworks seamlessly on your local machine.
  • Production Ready Build: Easily transition your application to production by running npm run build and making minor environment config changes.
  • Customizable Codebase: For advanced users, the option to clone and modify the setup is available to better fit individual needs.
  • Environment Configuration: Uses an .env file for environment variable management, simplifying configuration across different environments.
