This is a very basic Rails application to showcase usage of Webpacker-React.

Please read Webpacker-React documentation for more details.

First, clone this repository and install dependancies :

$ cd webpacker-react-example
$ bundle
$ ./bin/yarn

You then need to run Webpack to compile the javascript code :

$ ./bin/webpack

Now you can run the Rails app :

$ ./bin/rails server

Finally open http://localhost:3000/ in your browser.

Very basic React component, nothing special.

Packfiles are entrypoints for Webpacker's managed Javascript. For Webpacker-React to work, you need to import your component and register it for later use in your app.

Use the react_component() method from a view to render a previously registered component.

You can also use render react_component: 'Component' from a controller to render it.

You are encouraged to use this example application to test any development you make on the Webpacker-React code base. Please see its README for more details.
