Everything You Need to Start a Modular, Testable, Full-Stack JavaScript Project

What’s the best way to start on a JavaScript project? Don’t go through a lengthy setup process, or copy and paste code from an old project. Get everything ready in a few simple commands.

I’ve created a full-stack modular boilerplate to help you skip the long, boring setup and get started on your new project quickly.

How to Get Started

git clone ivanoats/modular-boilerplate

Then:

cd modular-boilerplate && npm install && bower install

You’re done! This setup has everything you need to get going to create modular, testable JavaScript code on the server and the browser.

What’s Included

This repository is a boilerplate for full-stack web apps using:

• CommonJS (Browserify) modules

• Grunt

• A simple, extensible ExpressJS sever

• The Jasmine Testing Framework with Karma runner

Next Steps

Open up app/js/app.js in your favorite editor and start writing some code!
