Getting Started

Initial Steps

1. Install Node.js and Yarn.
2. Download or clone this repository.
3. Open a command prompt in the project folder.
4. Install dependencies:
   

   yarn install

5. Start the server:
   

   yarn start

   
   This command initiates a build process and starts the server in production mode. Visit http://localhost to access the web application.

Development

Start the server in development mode:

yarn dev

Single Route Static Site Generation

Generate a static site:

yarn static

Open the index.html within the static folder to access the web application. The folder name can be modified with the RAZZLE_STATIC_PATH environment variable.

Idea Behind the Example

This project is based on the basic razzle example. This repository also satisfies the following 2 entry points required by Razzle:

• src/index.js for the server
• src/client.js for the browser

Understanding the Code: Analogy

Imagine building a car. Each component of the car represents a part of our code. The engine fills the role of the backend (like Express), while the wheels are like Material-UI – they help the car (or application) move smoothly. If the wheels are styled and designed well, just like how we want our application UI to look, the car will not only run but will turn heads while doing so. In our project, we manage components and styles, ensuring every part is functioning well together, just like a well-engineered car.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues during installation or while running the project, here are some steps to help you:

• Ensure you have the latest version of Node.js and Yarn installed.
• Check that all dependencies installed correctly without errors.
• Make sure your command prompt is in the correct project directory when running commands.
• If you see a problem with the server starting, look for error messages in the command prompt for guidance.
