Overview

The Vite React Express Docker Boilerplate is an excellent starting point for developers looking to quickly set up a modern web application. This boilerplate simplifies the process of building a web app by integrating essential tools with a clean and maintainable code structure. It utilizes Vite for fast development, React for building user interfaces, and Express for server-side logic, all while being packaged with Docker for easy deployment.

This boilerplate is a fantastic choice for those who prefer JavaScript over TypeScript, as it replaces the complexities of TypeScript with straightforward JavaScript. With built-in configurations for ESLint, stylelint, Prettier, and others, developers can enjoy a smooth coding experience right from the get-go.
