PERN Advanced Starter
Advanced PERN stack starter kit (PostgresSQL, Express, React, & Node), complete with ESLint, Webpack 4, Redux, React-Router, and Material-UI kit.
Overview:
The PERN-Advanced-Starter is an advanced starter app that utilizes the PERN stack (PostgresSQL, Express, React, & Node) to provide a powerful development environment and a good starting point for building a fully functional production application. This app incorporates various tools and features, including an advanced implementation of pg-promise for interaction with a SQL database and additional basic security concerns added to the Express server.
Features:
- ESLint: Style guide, syntax, and developer error finder and enforcer.
- Webpack: Static module bundler, compiler, and hot-reloader.
- Redux: Predictable state container/manager for JavaScript apps.
- React-Router: Dynamic Routing (navigation) for React client.
- React Material UI: Component library implementing Google's Material Design.
- Material-UI Kit: Curated mid-level component library complete with view examples.
- Axios: Promise-based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js.
Summary:
The PERN-Advanced-Starter is an advanced starter app that combines the power of the PERN stack with additional tools and features for a robust development environment. It utilizes pg-promise for interacting with a SQL database and includes features such as ESLint, Webpack, Redux, React-Router, React Material UI, Material-UI Kit, and Axios. By following the installation steps, users can set up the app, create a database, and start developing a fully functional production application.
- Express
Express.js is a simple Node.js framework for single, multi-page, and hybrid web applications.
- React
React is a widely used JavaScript library for building user interfaces and single-page applications. It follows a component-based architecture and uses a virtual DOM to efficiently update and render UI components
- SCSS
SCSS is a preprocessor scripting language that extends the capabilities of CSS by adding features such as variables, nesting, and mixins. It allows developers to write more efficient and maintainable CSS code, and helps to streamline the development process by reducing repetition and increasing reusability.
- Material UI
material-ui adds classes to Tailwind CSS for all common UI components. Classes like btn, card, etc. This allows us to focus on important things instead of making basic elements for every project.
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Material Design
Material Design is a design system developed by Google that provides a set of guidelines, components, and tools for creating visually appealing and functional user interfaces. Material Design is designed to be flexible and customizable, making it a great choice for a wide range of applications and use cases.
- Redux
Redux is a state management library for JavaScript apps that provides a predictable and centralized way to manage application state. It enables developers to write actions and reducers that update the state in response to user interactions, server responses, and other events, and can be used with a variety of front-end frameworks and back-end technologies.
- Webpack
Webpack is a popular open-source module bundler for JavaScript applications that bundles and optimizes the code and its dependencies for production-ready deployment. It can also be used to transform other types of assets such as CSS, images, and fonts.
