Whats this?

rorysaur commented 9 years ago

the build process.. transpiling JSX to JS, concatenating, etc. currently we're using reactify, browserify and watchify. webpack is the newer, super trendy thing that's supposed to take care of all those steps.. it might be good to get used to it in case it becomes the industry standard and browserify becomes deprecated/obsolete.

Anywhere I can read up about our build process? Can we add a sass transpiler + css concatenation?

rorysaur commented 9 years ago

the whole thing is pretty much outlined in the readme, and then you can look at the individual libraries' readmes. it's very minimal. nothing is set up for CSS so we can add whatever.

oh, guess i didn't actually write out what each library does. reactify: JSX to JS. browserify: concatenates everything into bundle.js. watchify: re-runs the other two whenever a file is changed.

We're using web pack now!
