React boilerplate for producing libraries of embeddable widgets

Overview

The React Widget Library is an innovative toolkit designed for developers looking to create embeddable widgets efficiently. Built upon a robust foundation primarily sourced from krasimir’s Webpack Library Starter, this library leverages modern JavaScript techniques to streamline the process of library development. With support for ES6, it enables developers to focus more on building features rather than dealing with complex configurations.

This library offers a seamless experience for integrating React components into various projects. With capabilities for minification and live reloading, it caters to both beginners and seasoned professionals eager to deploy functional and dynamic widgets quickly.

Features

  • Webpack-based: Utilizes Webpack for bundling, ensuring optimized performance and modular builds tailored for modern applications.
  • ES6 Support: Embraces ES6 features, allowing developers to write cleaner and more maintainable code.
  • Universal Module Definition (UMD): Exports components in UMD format, making them accessible across different module systems and environments.
  • Cypress Testing: Integrates with Cypress for robust testing, enabling developers to run tests in both headless mode and through an intuitive GUI.
  • Live Development Mode: Includes a development mode that triggers automatic recompilation on file changes, simplifying the debugging process.
  • Local Server Option: Provides a local server setup, facilitating easy viewing and testing in browsers during development.
  • Minification Support: Offers a build command that produces a minified version of the library, enhancing load times in production environments.
