React Monocle Rewrite #147

Open mbchoa opened 7 years ago

mbchoa commented 7 years ago

Have had a number of months to reflect on React Monocle's current implementation and have come up with some ideas on potential rewrite of the tool.

Goals

Better modularization of internal mechanisms which handle the parsing, transformation and generation of React source code
Upgrade and modernize toolset being used (React, webpack, babel, etc.)
Simplify CLI to be more developer-friendly
More robust error handling and developer feedback

Major Changes

Use babylon parser in favor of acorn
Integrate and hook into react-dev-tools to utilize component hierarchy generation

Challenges

Integrating with react-dev-tools
