My personal starterkit for React libraries

Overview

The react-lib-starterkit is a comprehensive starting point designed for developers looking to create reusable libraries and components in React. By leveraging a modern technology stack, this toolkit streamlines the development process, making it easier to manage and build upon React components. Whether you’re a seasoned developer or just beginning your journey in React, this starter kit offers a solid foundation for your projects.

This toolkit incorporates best practices tailored for building libraries in JavaScript, emphasizing efficiency and maintainability. With a focus on utilizing Rollup as a bundler, it optimizes the final library size, crucial for delivering efficient applications. Overall, it’s a compelling option for anyone aiming to develop robust React libraries.

Features

  • Transpiler: Babel
    Utilizes Babel for JavaScript transpilation, ensuring compatibility across various environments while allowing you to use the latest ECMAScript features.

  • Bundler: Rollup
    Employs Rollup for bundling, which preserves the shared scope between files and leads to smaller, more efficient library builds that save on bytes.

  • Testing Frameworks: Karma, Mocha, Chai, Enzyme
    Integrates popular testing tools for robust unit and integration testing, ensuring your components work as expected before deployment.

  • Linter: ESLint
    Implements ESLint to maintain code quality by enforcing consistent coding styles and detecting potential issues early in the development process.

  • Commit Hooks: Husky
    Uses Husky for managing Git hooks, enabling checks and tests to run during commit processes and ensuring code quality stays high.

  • Folder Structure
    Supports a clear and organized folder structure to enhance manageability and readability of your codebase, making it easier to navigate as your library grows.

  • Code Style: AirBnB
    Adopts the AirBnB style guide for JavaScript, promoting a widely accepted best practice format that enhances collaboration and readability among developers.

  • NPMCDN Support
    Offers a simple way to make your library available in browser environments using NPMCDN for easy access without directly linking to GitHub.
