Setting up the application


"Shawn, we were using JSBin up to this point. But now we will create the app locally. We will use the following directory structure for our code:"

$ tree -L 1
.
├── LICENSE
├── README.md
├── index.html
├── node_modules
├── package.json
├── server.js
├── src
└── webpack.config.js

2 directories, 6 files
  • The src directory will contain all of the React components

  • The webpack.config.js and server.js file will be used for setting up local development server using webpack.

  • The package.json file will be used to contain information about all of the npm packages used by us

  • The index.html file will be the starting point of the app

"Let's see our index.html file."
