react-typescript-monorepo-boilerplate

Too tired to create all web projects from scratch again and again

Unless you have a project that is going to be heavily dependent upon some framework (for example, you might be using Next.js), it's always the best practice NOT to use create-react-app to leave 100% of room for custom configurations. This is just the template repository for that.

The configs include the basic things I use for any of my projects. They're opinionated.

Included in the box

• eslint (+ prettier) autofix as you save on VSCode
• monorepo using npm v8+ workspaces
• webpack and its configs in Typescript
• jest config in Typescript
• jest + enzyme
• react + typescript + basic utils
• storybook
• npm
• nvmrc (currently 16.x)

Tips

• Don't install any packages inside packages/*. Install all modules for packages/* from the root: i.e. npm i --save-dev mymodule -w packages/app. This way, it won't create package-lock.json inside packages/app. If you simply run npm i --save-dev mymodule inside packages/app, package-lock.json will be created inside there as well, and this might confuse module resolution later.
• This config is based on the assumption that the developer is using Visual Studio Code.
