Create Reason React App CircleCI

image

Still far from it but I think a good start. I always had an issue with just jumping in and building something with Reason as it felt like there is loads of config involved.

I simplified @chenglou's example repo a bit, big thanks to his amazing work! It lowers the barrier at least for me, hope it's helpful for others too.

One of the main goals of Reason is to make the tooling simple enough to not need such a tool. This is a work in progress towards it.

For now this is more like a quick start to React Reason than a "create-reason-react-app", but the latter is the end goal of this project. I am still very knew to the language and this is where I want to learn and explore.

Getting started

  1. Clone the repo
  2. yarn or npm install
  3. yarn dev or npm run dev
  4. Open browser and navigate to: http://localhost:8080/

Intro

The project uses bucklescript build system and webpack under the hood. When you run yarn dev, bsb will run in watch mode and in parallel webpack's dev server is started at http://localhost:8080/. Files build by bsb can be found in the /lib directory. The amazing thing about bsb is that it produces readable javascript files. After these JS files are produced, webpack-dev-server uses them.

But how can I actually build something in Reason React

I will be adding more guides and examples to this repo. But for now, please check out @chenglou's repo with a few examples https://github.com/chenglou/reason-react-example. There's also a lot of information on syntax and Reason itself on the official website: https://facebook.github.io/reason.

Contribute

I'd like this to be a great "Get started..." place for Reason. Please submit feature requests, issues and pull requests. Feel free to contribute!
