Static Boilerplate

Lately I'd recommend jumping into something more stable depending on your requirements:

• Is it small / simple enough that it can be static? https://www.11ty.dev/
• Is it a web app using React? https://create-react-app.dev/
• Is it a wordpress project? Take a look at Roots and their tools.

This is how I roll.

Dependencies

Node.js v8.10.0+ (Preferably through the use of NVM)

Installing

Run npm install after cloning the project and navigating to the project folder in your terminal.

Running

In the project folder type npm start to spin a local server with live reloading and asset processing.

Deployment

When you're ready to deploy, you can generate a production-ready build by issuing the npm run build command. You will have the generated assets inside the dist folder.

Contributing

Fork it. Branch it. Push it. PR it.

TODO

• image optimization
• enforce html style
• static asset hashing
• inline critical css
• continuous integration with Travis CI
