Summary

This PR implements Phase 1 of the Angular to React migration by setting up the React project foundation. The changes include:

  • Initialized a new React TypeScript project using create-react-app in the angular-hn-react/ directory
  • Installed core dependencies that replace Angular equivalents:
    • react-router-dom (replaces Angular Router)
    • axios (for API calls)
    • rxjs (for Observable patterns)
    • workbox-precaching, workbox-routing, workbox-strategies (PWA functionality)
    • styled-components (component styling)
  • Created folder structure mirroring the Angular organization:
    • components/core/ (Header, Footer, Settings)
    • components/feeds/ (Feed, Item)
    • components/item-details/ (ItemDetails, Comment)
    • components/user/ (User)
    • services/ (hackerNewsApi.ts, settings.ts placeholders)
    • hooks/, types/, utils/

The project builds successfully with npm run build.

Review & Testing Checklist for Human

  • Verify the folder structure in angular-hn-react/src/ matches the expected organization for subsequent migration phases
  • Confirm all required dependencies are listed in package.json with appropriate versions
  • Run cd angular-hn-react && npm install && npm start to verify the development server starts correctly on localhost:3000

Recommended test plan: Navigate to the angular-hn-react directory, run npm install followed by npm start, and confirm the default React app loads in the browser. This validates the foundation is ready for Phase 2 component migration.

Notes

  • The service files (hackerNewsApi.ts, settings.ts) contain only empty exports as placeholders - actual implementation will be added in Phase 2
  • The package-lock.json is auto-generated and contains ~17k lines of dependency resolution
