Hello-preact: A PreactJS starter kit with all of the stuff you need

hello-preact

A PreactJS wmr starter kit for Glitch. Preact is a fast 3kB alternative to React with the same modern API. Note: You will need to know a bit of JSX to tinker with this starter kit.

Files:

  • public/index.html: The main HTML file.
  • public/index.js: Main components and JSX template, the text, images, buttons, css, all of it is loaded by this file
  • public/style.css: Main stylesheet, mainly fonts and logos

Fun facts:

  • You can import modules from npm without adding them to your package.json!
  • Import stylesheets with a simple import statement, like import "./style.css"
  • WMR has Built-in caching for npm modules

Commands:

  • npm run start: Builds the preactjs app to dist and spins up a server using http-server with port 3000.
  • npm run build: Builds the preactjs app to dist.
  • npm run clean: Removes the dist folder so old bundles do not remain and take up space.

Yes, I’m aware of the footer not spaced out, I made a change and it may be the way wmr caches stuff on why it’s not updating, so I’ma give it a little bit for the cache to expire.

So cool! I’ve been wanting to learn a little JSX for so long now.
