generator-jspm-es6-quick

yo generator for projects using jspm es6 sass along with optional react or angular or vanilla es6 . Supports live reload . No nonsense . No task runners required. Peace of mind B)

Installation

First, install Yeoman and generator-jspm-es6-quick using npm (we assume you have pre-installed node.js).

npm install -g yo
npm install -g generator-jspm-es6-quick

Then generate your new project:

yo jspm-es6-quick

##Features

• ES6 - using babel/traceur (jspm)
• JSPM - for module loading
• SASS
• Live Reload ( via browser-sync using npm scripts)
• Angular / React (JSX with JSPM bundling support) / No Frameworks
• Doesn't Use Gulp or any task runner. Thanks to awesome JSPM :)

##How to use the generated project

###To start the app in development mode (No bundling)

npm run serve

This launches a development server from browser-sync and watches for any change in files

For managing dependencies,css,etc use jspm

###For production build

npm run bundle

This creates a bundle file in bundle/ which is injected in config by jspm. So now jspm uses the bundled file to load the frontend app.

Hence the file system structure remains same for both production and development .. Jspm handles both the workflows seamlessly.

##Notes

The files like JS, CSS,etc which are to be bundled go inside src/ and are managed using jspm's import and module loaders .

The files like images, assets , html views ,etc which are not to be bundled along are to be kept in assets/.

Thus, when we run npm run bundle it only creates a bundle of the files in src

I hope this boilerplate serves u well :D
