React DDEV Setup


The React-DDEV-Setup is a containerized development environment designed to provide a consistent setup for React-based applications across all development teams. This setup allows you to develop React projects locally without worrying about local configurations or version mismatches. It ensures that every developer works in the same development environment, leading to a streamlined and efficient workflow.

By utilizing DDEV and Docker containers, this setup creates a clean and unified environment that is specifically designed for developing React applications.


Prerequisites

Before using the React-DDEV-Setup, make sure you meet the following requirements:


DDEV:

Install DDEV, the tool for managing containerized development environments. For more information, visit the DDEV website.


Docker:

DDEV relies on Docker. Make sure Docker is installed and running on your system. You can download Docker from the Docker website.


Git (optional):

If you plan to clone the project from a Git repository, ensure Git is installed on your computer.


Node.js:

This setup automatically handles the Node.js installation within the containers, so you don’t need to install Node.js locally

Installation and Usage

Follow these steps to get the React-DDEV-Setup up and running in your environment:


Clone the project:

Clone the repository or place the project files into your desired directory.


Navigate to the project directory:

Open your terminal and change to the directory where your DDEV configuration files are located.

cd path/to/ddev-setup


Start the DDEV environment:

Initialize and start the DDEV environment by running the following command:

ddev start

This command will start the necessary Docker containers and configure the environment based on your project settings.


Access the development URL:

Once the environment is successfully started, you can access your React application at:

https://[ddev-setup-url].ddev.site:[ddev-sttup-port]

Key Features


Containerized Development:

All development environments are provided through Docker containers, ensuring that each developer works with the same version of tools and dependencies.


Automatic Dependency Installation:

Tools required for React development, such as Node.js and Yarn, are automatically installed inside the containers.


Unified Environment:

Develop your application with the same software configuration that will be used in production, eliminating local differences that could cause issues.


Quick Project Setup:

With pre-configured hooks and automated installations, you can quickly set up a new React project without much effort.
