Tips and tricks #17

Since I am a visual studio/ms-monkey I thought it would be preferrable to get some tips for react/node development.

Like, for example, @Muthaias what IDE do you recommend? Sublime text? Typescript compilation via npm?

I guess it's up to personal preferences but could be good to share some tips

what IDE do you recommend?

Visual Studio Code is quite nice. Both TypeScript and VS Code is made by Microsoft.

I totally agree with Fredrik. Visual Studio Code is nice. And when it comes to building code with react the alternatives are quite a few but for some reason most JS build environments are based on command line tools and node. Don't ask me why and there's surely other options but I haven't really looked into it.

Getting started with react is very simple. Just check out this very short guide: https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/react-&-webpack.html

The last step would be getting started with SASS/SCSS which slightly different and requires amoung other things an installation of ruby. Use it once and you'll never want to use regular CSS again ;)

Nice, I'll familiarize myself!
