A simple setup for putting react into your rails

Getting Started

Adding the javascript bundle

Drop this into your main application layout

<%= javascript_bundle_tag 'main' %>

Using components in rails views

Export component in app/assets/javascripts/components/index.js

// app/assets/javascripts/components/index.js

component(String component_name, Hash props)

<%= component('MyComponent', {}) %>
