Kickstart Template

[wbashir]

Will there be or is there already a current kickstarter template for those of us wanting to convert an existing monolith meteor application or start a new one?

Hi, Is this what your are looking for ? https://github.com/mantrajs/meteor-mantra-kickstarter

@wbashir I am just working to update the template to be inline with the modules branch

[wbashir]

@pablolarvor thanks for the reference. @Makstr Awesome! I will wait for the modules branch to be merged unless the spec isn't ready yet.

Hi, here is an alternative for you: https://github.com/tomitrescak/Meteor-Boilerplate-Webpack-Mantra-Typescript

This one is using the webpack to support hot code reload and native npm support. It also fully ports Mantra to Typescript if interested.

@wbashir I just updated https://github.com/mantrajs/meteor-mantra-kickstarter/.

Have been working with the kickstarter for over a week now, absolutely loving it. (Not yet looked into the one mentioned by @tomitrescak

Edit: just looked into Tomtrescak's repo link and it seems to be no longer maintained.

Sorry for the delays, I was away busy with daily work, I will be updating and pulling in the next couple of day and will try to get everything up to date

[sandervanhooft]

No problem, just let me know if I can help you get things going. Kickstarter looks promising. Thanks for your efforts so far!

@sandervanhooft it is, but at the official mantrajs repository here: https://github.com/mantrajs/kickstart-mantrajs-webpack

there is also a typescript version at https://github.com/mantrajs/kickstart-mantrajs-webpack-typescript

The biggest difference between two is that mine uses webpack and Meteor 1.2 with all that comes with webpack, pros and cons.

[edit] and just not to confuse more people I changed the message in the readme ;)

[sandervanhooft]

That's interesting. Perhaps these should be mentioned in the public website too?
