Bem React Boilerplate

Overview

BEM React Boilerplate was once a go-to solution for developing applications using the BEM (Block Element Modifier) methodology in React. However, it’s crucial to note that this project has been deprecated, as modern practices in the React ecosystem suggest that there is no longer a need for a specialized boilerplate. Developers are encouraged to leverage the flexibility of established tools like Create React App to streamline their workflows and enhance productivity.
