Get started

To start, edit the file in src/containers/App.js

const App = () => (
  <Provider store={store}>
    <I18nextProvider i18n={i18n}>
      <Router>
        <Switch>
          <Route
            path="/"
            render={() => <h1>{i18n.t("global:hello-world")}</h1>}
          />
        </Switch>
      </Router>
    </I18nextProvider>
  </Provider>
);

You can also start to edit files in translations folder.

You should know

Server (in development and production), render the folder public in a static path /assets, you can load file by 2 ways

Best way:

    <img
      alt="kitten"
      src={require("../public/images/kitten.jpg")}
    />

Other way:

    <img
      alt="kitten"
      src="/assets/images/kitten.jpg"
    />

Advice

• Keep the window-state in the redux-store could be useful.

• Keep the AppPromise, without it promise the app could be loaded before translation. Don't forget that Google use the first rendering for referencing. If you don't need i18next, you could update app.js

  	    AppPromise().then(() => {
  		    ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById("app"));
  	    });
  

To

ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById("app"));

• Husky is a great package to writte some hooks in package.json. I recommend to keep it.
