Developer Starter Pack - React with NodeJS

Usage

Install nodemon globally

npm i nodemon -g

Install server and client dependencies

yarn
cd client
yarn

To start the server and client at the same time (from the root of the project)

yarn dev

Running the production build on localhost. This will create a production build, then Node will serve the app on http://localhost:5000

NODE_ENV=production yarn dev:server

How this works

The key to use an Express backend with a project created with create-react-app is on using a proxy. We have a proxy entry in client/package.json

"proxy": "http://localhost:5000/"

This tells Webpack development server to proxy our API requests to our API server, given that our Express server is running on localhost:5000
