Webpack React TypeScript CLI

A CLI tool to generate a simple Webpack React TypeScript project setup. This project provides a ready-to-use development environment with essential tooling like Babel, Webpack, Prettier, and TypeScript.

• React 18 with TypeScript support
• Webpack setup for both development and production
• Babel for compiling modern JavaScript/TypeScript
• Prettier for code formatting
• CSS and asset bundling with Webpack
• Dev server with hot-reloading

To create a new Webpack React TypeScript project, you can directly use npx without installing the tool globally:

npx @gauravdalvi/webpack-react-typescript@latest <project-name>

This will create a new folder with the specified name and initialize the project with a complete Webpack, React, and TypeScript setup.

Inside your generated project, run the following command to install dependencies:

npm install

Inside your generated project, run the following command to start the development server:

npm start

This will open your project in a browser with live reload capabilities.

To build the project for production:

npm run build

This will create a dist folder with the bundled and minified code ready for deployment.

To format your code using Prettier, run:

npm run format

To quickly create a new React component, run:

npm run create-component <component-name>

This will execute the create_component.sh script to generate a boilerplate for your component.

The generated project will have the following structure:
