Upgrade React, Node and migrate to ES6 #602

Open oktaal opened 5 years ago

oktaal commented 5 years ago

Hi everyone! I'm currently working on upgrading Scribe to React 15 to be able to use more current versions of node and NPM libraries. Sadly this also meant letting go of CoffeeScript, because this was basically a dead end as explained here.

I hope to be able to have a pull request ready soon(TM), but just in case anyone happens to be looking into this as well, I figured it might be helpful to let you know in advance.

@oktaal God bless you, that's quite a rewrite. How's it going?

Quite well actually! Everything seems to work again and we hope to have our project done by the end of the year. I wouldn't recommend "upgrading" existing projects, especially if they've had changes outside of the scribe master, but for new projects it should already be usable. At least it is for us.
