Express React with Material UI Starter

This is a template for using Express and React with Material UI installed in the same project. It is based on Create React App

Installing

git clone https://github.com/ElMehdiAbbes/node-react-mui.git
cd app-name
npm install

Running The App

The template can be run in development, or in production. For development, use the following workflow.

Start the Express Server

node server/server.js

Start Create React App

In a different terminal tab...

npm start

The "Welcome to React" is a message that comes from the Express server.

Building For Production

In production, you want Express to serve up your app.

Build React App

npm build

Now simply visit the Express app at 'http://localhost:3001' and you will see your app served from the 'build' folder. That's all there is to it!
