A starter project for React.js that uses webpack for building the code. It includes a basic page with a router and an example of a home and 404 route. In addition, for the backend it also includes an express and socket.io implementation, since I've found that I use this combination quite frequently.

I wanted a clean webpack boilerplate, to contrast it with the gulp package I already wrote.

Clone the repository and run npm install to install the dependencies. After, run npm run dev to build the sample code, which will be deposited into public/js.ui.js. To see how it looks, run the built in server using the command npm start. Your server should be launched, and you can then access it on localhost:8080.

The following tasks are implemented:

• npm run dev - the main and default task that takes the react.js code and outputs a non-minifed JavaScript bundle file.
• npm run prod - when you are ready to deploy, this runs the same code as npm run dev, only it minifies it at the end and applies the production environment.
• npm run watch - watches for changes in the jsx and js files and triggers compilation when a change is detected. The compilation is dev mode.
