Vanilla Flux Implementation

authors: Gregory Tandiono & Max Lin

This is a working example of vanilla flux using browserify (with babel transforms, shims, flowtype), es6, and flowtype (typed javascript). This project also includes batteries (a fake express server with faker)

This project is gulpless, gruntless, webpackless, requireless, it uses NPM all the way, for the sake of simplicity (and personal preference)

There are tons of examples out there, why another one?

why not?

How to run it on your local machine

Pre Req:

• Node/iojs
• npm
• nodemon (npm install nodemon -g)
• flow (brew install flow) (OPTIONAL)

Build Steps:

• run npm install
• run npm run build
• run node server.js (should be in port 1337, you can change it in server.js)

Development Steps:

• run npm run watch
• run nodemon server.js (should be in port 1337, you can change it in server.js)

Notes

I use facebook's flow as a static type checker, notice the /* @flow */ on the top of every (or most) of the js files I wish to have checked. Run flow check on the project's parent directory. Probably will give you tons of errors, because flow does not support a lot of es6 stuff just yet, but I'm keeping it there in case they support it soon.

This is still a working build without tests, if you find the nomenclature a bit strange, please open issues/PR, I will welcome it.
