Getting Started

Quick Start

npx create-razzle-app my-app
cd my-app
npm start

Then open http://localhost:3000/ to see your app. Your console should look like this:

Razzle Development Mode

That's it. You don't need to worry about setting up multiple webpack configs or other build tools. Just start editing src/App.js and go!

Commands

Below is a list of commands you will probably find useful.

npm start

Runs the project in development mode. You can view your application at http://localhost:3000

The page will reload if you make edits.

npm run build

Builds the app for production to the build folder.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes. Your app is ready to be deployed!

npm run start:prod

Runs the compiled app in production.

You can again view your application at http://localhost:3000

npm test

Runs the test watcher (Jest) in an interactive mode. By default, runs tests related to files changed since the last commit.

rs

If your application is running, and you need to manually restart your server, you do not need to completely kill and rebundle your application. Instead you can just type rs and press enter in terminal.

Razzle Hot Restart

Debugging with Inspector

  • npm start -- --inspect=[host:port] This will start the node server and enable the inspector agent. The =[host:port] is optional and defaults to =127.0.0.1:9229. For more information, see this.

  • npm start -- --inspect-brk=[host:port] This is the same as --inspect, but will also break before user code starts. (to give a debugger time to attach before early code runs) For more information, see this.
