This project is a starting point for a TypeScript based React app that also has a local API server using express.

There are 2 different Webpack configurations. One for the server and one for the client.

The server build process compiles the TypeScript files found in /src/server into a single bundled JavaScript file located in the /dist directory.

The client build process compiles the React app located in /src/client into a bundled located at /public/js/app.js.

The client configuration will also build the Sass files found at /src/client/scss. The App component imports the app.scss file which already includes an import for Bootstrap.

In order to run the server, use npm run dev, and the server will start on port 3000 (http://localhost:3000).

Webpack will watch the files. Once you save a file, you can refresh your browser to ensure you got the updated client files. If you only change server files, you shouldn't need to refresh.
