Setup

Learn how to complete the setup for the boilerplate.

First, let’s clean up the starter project, so you have a clean slate to follow along with the instructions in this chapter.

First, remove all content from the index.js file. Then change the index.html file to the simple version below, removing all unnecessary code from the body section:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head lang="en">
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <title>The Complete Redux Course - Example Application</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <div>
      The Complete Redux Course - Example Application
    </div>
    <div id="app"></div>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="index.js"></script>
  </body>
</html>

The only div will be our mounting point to the single-page application. This is where we will programmatically initiate and update our UI using jQuery.

You’re ready! Run the following to start the application.

npm start
