⚠️ Unmaintained

This project has been archived and is considered outdated and unmaintained.

With the massive rise of the CLI tools by each major JavaScript Web frameworks, it was become irrelevant to pursue the quest of being a competitive project scaffolder for modern Web project.

We officialy advise to use the coresponding CLI tools for the framework you use:

• create-react-app for React
• Vue CLI for Vue.js
• Angular CLI for Angular

Of course, we have some regrets regarding our users, Yeoman users and some goals we had with Fountain (like giving important tool choices to users, harmonizing projects configurations between frameworks...) but still, you can use official CLI tools with confidence as they are great project which went further for development experience and Web optimization.

Fountain React Generator

This Yeoman generator allows you to start a React web app with the best Developer Experience out of the box!

No matter what framework or module management you want to use, we got you covered with a cutting edge working configuration.

We use Gulp 4 as a task manager but we'll ask you questions about:

• Modules management: Webpack, SystemJS, none
• JS preprocessor: Babel, TypeScript, none
• CSS preprocessor: Sass, Stylus, Less, none

This generator is a sub-generator of the the Yeoman Fountain generator for webapps generator-fountain-webapp.

Generator Fountain React structure

To take profit of the best of the Yeoman infrastructure, we heavily relies on the composability natures of the generators.

Thereby, each needs of your future application will be addressed by a dedicated Yeoman generator (each will be used depending of the options you selected or not).

Use NPM scripts

• npm run build to build an optimized version of your application in /dist
• npm run serve to launch a browser sync server on your source files
• npm run serve:dist to launch a server on your optimized application
• npm run test to launch your unit tests with Karma
• npm run test:auto to launch your unit tests with Karma in watch mode

Or Gulp tasks

If you have gulp-cli installed in global packages you can use equivalent:

• gulp or gulp build
• gulp serve
• gulp serve:dist
• gulp test
• gulp test:auto

If you don't have gulp-cli installed in global, you should have this error:

Sub-generators

Few sub-generators are available. You can see the full list by running yo --generators.
Each generator has 2 options:

• You can set the name of the generated item with --name
