Electrode
Built at @WalmartLabs powering the http://www.walmart.com eCommerce site, Electrode is a platform for building small to large scale universal ReactJS/NodeJS web applications with a standardized structure, best practices, and modern technologies baked in. Electrode focuses on performance, component reusability, and simple deployment to multiple cloud providers—so you can focus on what makes your app unique.

The Electrode main repo uses Lerna to manage multiple related packages that are part of the Electrode Core.
electrode-archetype-react-app is a pair of complementing NPM modules that provides for common patterns across all app projects so that each app project can standardize on common development behavior and patterns. Its essentially pre-made patterns for build scripts. It also requires a companion module electrode-archetype-react-app-dev that's meant for your app's devDependencies.
electrode-archetype-react-component is a pair of comlementing NPM modules that makes developing reusable React components as easy as possible with all the latest tools and technologies configured for you.
The Yeoman generator-electrode NPM module allows you to quickly create an Universal React App or Component with support from the archetypes, and server in Node with Hapi or Express.
You can learn how to use them here.
Some sample applications can be found under the samples directory.
In addition to the archetypes and the generators, Electrode platform also comes with a fleet of battle tested enterprise grade modules that're designed to make up a solution for developing and deploying NodeJS applications to power sites like http://www.walmart.com:
- Electrode Confippet
- Electrode Electrify
- Electrode CSRF JWT
- Electrode Redux Router Engine
- Electrode React SSR Caching
- Above The Fold Only Server Render
- Electrode Bundle Analyzer
Under samples/universal-react-node is a sample Electrode app that was created with the Electrode generator and consumes the Electrode App archetype modules. We've added other demos and features to it to serve as examples. It demonstrates usage with the standalone NodeJS modules listed above.
See its README for more details.
Sample Universal React Node with material-ui
Under samples/universal-material-ui is a sample Electrode app that uses the material-ui React components.
See its README for more details.
We have more separate Electrode Sample Apps at https://github.com/electrode-samples that you can use as references.
