starting help? + needs git react #1

Closed Justinfront closed 7 years ago

It seems to need git react ( ReactUtil was missing ), so you can't currently install via haxelib, so got react from github, using haxe 3.3.0. Can you clarify how to run the application, I have been running some traditional react projects but must admit still very much learning and a lot of them have scripts to automagically open the browser or electron.

I tried opening a local browser after following all the instructions. http://localhost:3000/

but that did not work, maybe I have another react running? But some advice welcome on basics of running the app.

Could you add more instructions on starting the app here cheers. https://github.com/elsassph/haxe-react-redux#building-the-app

Ah, the strange number in the livereload thing, must have originally tried it with a slash rather than a colon, I am still very much a flash dev that's been using AIR too much. http://localhost:35729 working now, might be worth clarifying in the readme docs especially as the port number does not seem that usual.

elsassph commented 7 years ago

Yes, the readme anticipates on the haxelib release - I didn't want to clutter the doc with that.

I can add the port info but... it's displayed by the server when it starts ;)

Well perhaps but some of the guys at work are learning traditional React and they did not realize either that was a valid port number. They were confused by the lack of webpack etc... it would be good to perhaps when you have some time to do a component stack comparisom and explaination, it's perhaps a bit of a mind shift. Probably no hope for where I work but if you can get on the js geeks radar then sheep will follow and I think you need to really remove all barriers.
Did you look at Riot, saw a really much simpler todo but apparently it does not scale?? but there is a haxe extern, is there any mileage in adding some haxe magic and improvements to Riot? I just feel that React generally has a lot of boiler plate complexity and dependancy and Riot looked to have a lot less, but maybe all React needs is some haxe like you've done. Would be nice to get a bit more detail on workings and more different examples like a page menu system, will prob try to get my head round some of your code tomorrow as I can argue theory is all applicable to js react learning.
