Create React Typescript App

Create React apps with no build configuration. This repo is a fork of Facebook create-react-app and it is an experimental attempt to create a similar application for typescript.

tl;dr

npm install -g create-react-ts-app

create-react-ts-app my-app
cd my-app/
npm start

Then open http://localhost:7777/ to see your app.
When you’re ready to deploy to production, create a minified bundle with npm run build.

Getting Started

Installation

Install it once globally:

npm install -g create-react-ts-app

You’ll need to have Node >= 4 on your machine. We recommend to use Node >= 6 and npm >= 3 for faster installation speed and better disk usage. You can use nvm to easily switch Node versions between different projects.

This tool doesn’t assume a Node backend. The Node installation is only required for the build tools that rely on it locally, such as Webpack and Babel.

Creating an App

To create a new app, run:

create-react-ts-app my-app
cd my-app

It will create a directory called my-app inside the current folder.
Inside that directory, it will generate the initial project structure and install the transitive dependencies:

my-app/
  README.md
  index.html
  favicon.ico
  node_modules/
  package.json
  typings.json
  typings/
  test/
  src/
    actions/        - action creators
    common/         - interfaces
    containers/     - react containers
    components/     - react components
    helper/         - redux-helper
    reducers/       - reducers
    index.css
    index.tsx
    logo.svg

No configuration or complicated folder structures, just the files you need to build your app.
Once the installation is done, you can run some commands inside the project folder:

npm start

Runs the app in development mode.
Open http://localhost:7777 to view it in the browser.

The page will reload if you make edits.
You will see the build errors and lint warnings in the console.
