simple boilerplate for full-stack real-time apps built with ES6, react, express and socket.io

See demo here: http://react-socket-starter-demo.herokuapp.com/.

##What's included

• ES6 on both Client and Server (via babel)
• React on the client (with react-dom and react-router)
• Express and Socket.io on the server
• npm and gulp set up to get comfortably developing in no time (NB! Livereload is enabled via browser plugin, so you have to install it).
• sass stylesheets and base for simple sass styling

• git clone git@github.com:GeorgeStrakhov/react-socket-starter.git
• cd react-socket-starter
• rm -rf .git - assuming that you want to have your own repo
• npm install
• npm run dev - starts dev server with watch and livereload (via browser plugin, make sure to have it installed).
• open browser http://localhost:4242 and start developing

(remember that free apps on Heroku sleep for at least a few hours a day!)

• install heroku toolbelt
• standard git stuff: git init && git add -A && git commit -am "init" && git push
• heroku create
• heroku stack:set cedar-14
• heroku features:enable http-session-affinity
• npm run deploy

• enable HMR
• optimize build process: gulp should run incremental builds on watch
