Rollstack: Dev tool for web applications front-end

• naaabs 4y ago
  Hey HN, excited to share with you Rollstack, a front-end development platform for developers, that includes visual development, one click integrations and code editing. The result is a React application in sync with github/gitlab. The code is fully owned by developers with the ability to eject it when needed. The alpha was released 3 weeks ago and we're focusing now on the beta version. Team members are here to answer any question :)

    > The result is a React application... OK, but what does the React code look like? Does it deliver just UI components, or is it structured into a full app? How does that app handle routing and state management? What npm packages and UI frameworks does it use? Does it build CSS-in-JS or use a different styling solution? In short, how many decisions are pre-built by the app, and how much choice do developers really get in their UI?

      Hi codingdave, React applications built with Rollstack, come with a clean & production-ready code. Under the hood, they all use libraries like tailwind for the styling part, react-router for routing, axios & react-query for data synchronization, redux for state mngmt, and other open source libraries for all other features and external integrations.
