React Tutorial ALTERED

In the interest of learning the fundamentals of ReactJS as quickly as possible, I am throwing together some demos on top of a fork of the original React Tutorial https://github.com/reactjs/react-tutorial. Any comments or suggestions are GREATLY appreciated!

If you build the repo as explained below, the default page will show a react example.

To use

There are several simple server implementations included. They all serve static files from public/ and handle requests to /api/comments to fetch or add data. Start a server with one of the following:

Node

npm install
node server.js

Python

pip install -r requirements.txt
python server.py

Ruby

ruby server.rb

PHP

php server.php

Go

go run server.go

Perl

cpan Mojolicious
perl server.pl

And visit http://localhost:3000/. Try opening multiple tabs!

Changing the port

You can change the port number by setting the $PORT environment variable before invoking any of the scripts above, e.g.,

PORT=3001 node server.js
