The fastest React.js Starter Template in the world
If you've ever used React.js on Repl.it you probably know how painful it is -- it is slow to start up and the filewatching-updating cycle makes it buggy to code in.
I've been working on a super fast React.js template that feels native to Repl.it, that means:
- starts up instantly
- it's small and doesn't take up disk space quota (13mb vs 300mb)
- hit run and it refreshes the webview
- it compiles really quickly and works both in dev and prod the same
Here it is, let me know what you think
hmmm isn't react usually really slow?
@HahaYes yes but isn't this fast? ✌️
@amasad yes... How did you do it?
@HahaYes It makes use of esbuild, a javascript compiler written in Go https://github.com/evanw/esbuild
whoa that is awesome
Does it work on nextjs? Plus I don't really see people ever make react projects on repl.it. we need more react projects
@PDanielY I think because it kinda sucked. This will make it better.
It doesn't work on nextjs yet but I think they're working on it. I got in touch with them.
Cool!
As an alternative to this, you could create a regular HTML/CSS/JS repl with the React CDN links and htm.
i don't get it
make one for PYTHON 🐍
react is javascript... @DSASumer
oh my gosh its beautiful
yay! also can you make syntax highlighting for EJS?
@theangryepicbanana is working on highlighting, so I guess they could add that to their list if it isn't
@ChezCoder Should be out sometime this week hopefully!
@theangryepicbanana has this been added?
@PDanielY I think so
@theangryepicbanana @PDanielY yes, it is added, thank you @amasad!!!
That should be the default profile pic :)
