This is a simple server side application that combines cherrytree + cherrytree-for-react + react + express.
It's a very simple static twitter like app, taken from the hello-world example, but converted to a React app.
$ npm install
$ npm start
Now open http://localhost:8000.
The way it works is:
- app/server.js starts an express app and listens to all urls via
app.get('*', render(routes)) - app/render.js is a generic function that instantiates a cherrytree for that request and returns React.renderToString results. It also handles
router.transitionTo()redirects. - app/routes.js is a cherrytree route map that describes the route tree and connects routes to React components. This file can be fully reused on the clientside.
