Inferno Rollup starter

This is a base project to use when you want to build an Inferno app, that is bundled by Rollup and transpiled by Bublé.

Getting started

npm install
npm start

This will build the project and serve it on http://localhost:5000.

Quirks

The project has been designed with interop of React-like libraries in mind. We want to easily be able to switch and test different libraries by changing a build step. So it requires you put a standard import React from 'react' in every JSX file.

This is because JSX elements, like in any React project, are transpiled to React.createElement(...) by Bublé, everything still works with Inferno because react and react-dom have been aliased in the Rollup build, to point to inferno-create-element and inferno-dom.

If you would rather not pretend you're using React you can easily instruct Bublé to transpile JSX to just createElement(...), and include import createElement from 'inferno-create-element' in every JSX file instead. There is a line to uncomment in the rollup.config.js file for that.

App structure

Well, there isn't much. src/index.js which loads and renders the src/components/Hello.js component.

Scripts

• npm run build Builds the project to dist
• npm start - Builds and serves the project
• npm run watch - Watches the src folder and rebuilds the project on changes.
