Clear create-react-app

After you have created your React project with create-react-app, you can clean it up with:

npx clear-cra

This is a very simple package that tries to remove and edit boilerplate files after you have run create-react-app.

This is very usefull when you don't want to remove and edit all files yourself.

Which files are removed?

These are the files that clear-cra tries to remove:

src/App.css (you can choose to keep)
src/App.test.js (you can choose to keep)
src/setupTests.js (you can choose to keep)
src/reportWebVitals.js
src/logo.svg
public/manifest.json (you can choose to keep)
public/logo192.png (you can choose to keep)
public/logo512.png (you can choose to keep)

Which files are changed?

These are the files that clear-cra tries to change, with resulting code below each file:

src/index.js

import React from "react";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import "./index.css";
import App from "./App";

ReactDOM.render(
  <React.StrictMode>
    <App />
  </React.StrictMode>,
  document.getElementById("root")
);

src/index.css

body {
  margin: 0;
}

src/App.js

// import only if "Keep src/App.css" is chosen:
import "./App.css";

function App() {
  return (
    null
  );
}

export default App;

public/index.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8" />
  <link rel="icon" href="%PUBLIC_URL%/favicon.ico" />
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />
  <meta name="theme-color" content="#000000" />
  <meta
    name="description"
    content="Web site created using create-react-app"
  />
  <!-- Added only if "keep src/manifest.json" is chosen: -->
  <link rel="apple-touch-icon" href="%PUBLIC_URL%/logo192.png" />
  <!-- Added only if "keep src/manifest.json" is chosen: -->
  <link rel="manifest" href="%PUBLIC_URL%/manifest.json" />
  <title>React App</title>
</head>
<body>
  <noscript>You need to enable JavaScript to run this app.</noscript>
  <div id="root"></div>
</body>
</html>

Bonus!

If you select the context folder option, you are asked if you also want to create a global provider. This is a provider you can use to store global states, and then share these states with any component inside the provider (also deeply nested components).

Create it

If you choose to create this provider, two things happen:

A GlobalContext.js -file is created inside the context -folder.
The provider from GlobalContext.js is "wrapped" around the return-content in App.js

App.js will then look something like this:

import { GlobalProvider } from "./contexts/GlobalContext";

function App() {
  return (
    <GlobalProvider value={{}}>
      {null}
    </GlobalProvider>
  );
}

export default App;

Setup

The value -prop is where all shared data should go, and off course, you, decide what should go in there, but to show you an example, it would look something like this:

import { GlobalProvider } from "./contexts/GlobalContext";

function App() {
  var [darkmode, setDarkmode] = useState(false);

  return (
    <GlobalProvider value={{
      darkmode, setDarkmode
    }}>
      <SomeComponent />
      <SomeOtherComponent />
    </GlobalProvider>
  );
}

export default App;

Now all components you add inside <GlobalProvider> (like <SomeComponent /> and <SomeOtherComponent />) will have access to darkmode and setDarkmode.

If you need more state, just add it:

import { GlobalProvider } from "./contexts/GlobalContext";

function App() {
  var [darkmode, setDarkmode] = useState(false);
  var [someState, setSomeState] = useState({});

  return (
    <GlobalProvider value={{
      darkmode, setDarkmode,
      someState, setSomeState
    }}>
      <SomeComponent />
      <SomeOtherComponent />
    </GlobalProvider>
  );
}

export default App;

If you need more components to have access to these states, just add them inside the provider:

import { GlobalProvider } from "./contexts/GlobalContext";

function App() {
  var [darkmode, setDarkmode] = useState(false);
  var [someState, setSomeState] = useState({});

  return (
    <GlobalProvider value={{
      darkmode, setDarkmode,
      someState, setSomeState
    }}>
      <SomeComponent />
      <SomeOtherComponent />
      <SomeThirdComponent />
      <SomethingCompletelyDifferent />
      <CantThinkOfAnyNames />
      <AaaaarGh />
    </GlobalProvider>
  );
}

export default App;

Usage

One thing is to create access to global states, but we also need to "grab" these states inside other (child) components. As an example, let's say you need:

setDarkmode in <SomeComponent />
darkmode in <SomeOtherComponent />
darkmode and setDarkmode in <CantThinkOfAnyNames />

you can use the useGlobalContext -hook to "grab" these values from the context:

SomeComponent

import useGlobalContext from "../contexts/GlobalContext";

function SomeComponent(){
  var {setDarkmode} = useGlobalContext();

  return (
    // Use setDarkmode for whatever
  );
}

export default SomeComponent;

SomeOtherComponent

import useGlobalContext from "../contexts/GlobalContext";

function SomeOtherComponent(){
  var {darkmode} = useGlobalContext();

  return (
    // Use darkmode for whatever
  );
}

export default SomeOtherComponent;

CantThinkOfAnyNames

import useGlobalContext from "../contexts/GlobalContext";

function CantThinkOfAnyNames(){
  var {darkmode, setDarkmode} = useGlobalContext();

  return (
    // Use darkmode and setDarkmode for whatever
  );
}

export default CantThinkOfAnyNames;
