react-cli

Scaffolding tool for React

react-cli is a command line interface which brings smooth developer experience (DX) for React devs. react-cli provides a better way to generate react projects with react-boilerplate. With this tool it's possible to continue generating boilerplate code with heavy customizations once a project is initiated.

Configuring existing projects

To use react-cli in existing React project navigate to directory where React components are created. Create react-cli configuration file, .reactclirc (similar to .babelrc). Add configuration in key value pairs.

{
	"client": "src" 
}

This specifies that React components are placed in src/components directory.
