This template is meant to serve as a foundation for every P2/P3 following the React-Express-MySQL stack, as learned in Wild Code School. It's pre-configured with a set of tools which'll help students produce industry-quality and easier-to-maintain code, while staying as simple as possible to use.

• In VSCode, install plugins Prettier - Code formatter and ESLint and configure them
• Clone this repo, enter it
• Run command npm run setup
• NB: To launch the backend server, you'll need an environment file with database credentials. You'll find a template one in backend/.env.sample

• setup : Initialization of frontend and backend, as well as all toolings
• dev : Starts both servers (frontend + backend) in one terminal
• dev-front : Starts the React frontend server
• dev-back : Starts the Express backend server
• lint : Runs validation tools, and refuses unclean code (will be executed on every commit)
• fix : Fixes linter errors (run it if lint growls on your code !)

• Concurrently : Allows for several commands to run concurrently in the same CLI
• Husky : Allows to execute specific commands that trigger on git events
• Vite : Alternative to Create-React-App, packaging less tools for a more fluid experience
• ESLint : "Quality of code" tool, ensures chosen rules will be enforced
• Prettier : "Quality of code" tool as well, focuses on the styleguide
• _ Airbnb Standard_ : One of the most known "standards", even though it's not officially linked to ES/JS
• Nodemon : Allows to restart the server everytime a .js file is udated
