This is a WIP rebuild of my personal website using React.
It's around 90% done (In terms of a straight rebuild) so it's already live at spentaylor.com.
A couple of reasons.
First: React.
I just wanted to have a reasonable sized, non-todo-list project to really play around with React and some of it's surrounding libraries.
Second: Take a look at the original build.
It had started to become a bit of a nightmare whenever I wanted to do anything remotely fancy such as page transitions.
React & Redux seemed to solve many of these issues that I was seeing, particularly around managing state.
Feel free to clone this proje ct to play & tinker with it as you please :) Here's how to get it running locally:
git clone git@github.com:spen.github.io-reactyarn install (because it's 2017! 🎉)npm start to bundle & serve the project.http://localhost:3000/in your browser 🙂You'll notice that there's no tests here currently!
I'm a huge fan of testing generally but I've been eager to just build this out.
That said - once this project is rounded out a little more I will be supporting it with unit tests - stay tuned!
Any to-dos will be tracked & kept (mostly) up to date in issue #69
