v0.15.2

Fixes

• Remove unused/broken "minify" property provided to HtmlWebpackPlugin configuration.

v0.15.1

Fixes

• Dev server now loads the correct Webpack configuration with HMR enabled.
• Redbox-React error catcher is now loaded correctly in development.

v0.15.0

Fixes

• HMR is now longer enabled for simple compilations. You can now compile development builds that won't constantly ping a non-existent dev server.
• react-transform-hmr now only runs when HMR is enabled.

Improvements

• Unit tests now only run in watch mode when explicitly requested. This makes it much more convenient to run tests on any environment without having to struggle with the singleRun flag in Karma.
• There is now only a single webpack configuration (rather than one for the client and one for the server). As a result, configuration has once again been split into a base configuration which is then extended based on the current NODE_ENV.

Deprecations

• Removed Koa server (sad days).

v0.14.0

Features

• Replaces react-transform-webpack-hmr with its replacement react-transform-hmr. Thanks to daviferreira.
• Replaces delicate-error-reporter with redbox-react. Thanks to bulby97.
• Created a no-server branch here to make it easier for users who don't care about Koa.

Improvements

• Renames client directory to src to be more intuitive.
• inline-source-map has been replaced by source-map as the default webpack devTool to reduce build sizes.
• Refactors configuration file to focus on commonly-configured options rather than mixing them with internal configuration.
• Swaps dev and dev:debug so debug tools are now enabled by default and can be disabled instead with dev:no-debug.
• Repositions Redux devtools so they no longer block errors displayed by redbox-react.
• Adds explicit directory references to some import statements to clarify which are from from npm and which are local.

Fixes

• Fixes naming in HomeView where mapStateToProps was incorrectly written as mapDispatchToProps.

Deprecations

• Removes local test utilities (in ~/src/utils/test).

v0.13.0

Features

• Adds react-transform-catch-errors along with delicate-error-reporter. Thanks bulby97 for this!

Fixes

• ExtractTextPlugin is once again production only. This fixes an issue where styles wouldn't be hot reloaded with Webpack.
