Play Framework with scala-js-react

This project provides a starting point for your scala-js-react application.

Project is based on play-with-scalajs-example which is a simple example application showing how you can integrate a Play project with a Scala.js project.

The application contains three directories:

• scalajvm Play application (server side)
• scalajs Scala.js application (client side)
• scala scala code that you want to share between scalajs and scalajvm (both client and server sides)

Run the application

$ sbt
> run
$ open http://localhost:9000

Features

• Run your application like a regular Play app
  • compile simply triggers the Scala.js compilation
  • run triggers the Scala.js compilation on page refresh
  • ~compile, ~run, continuous compilation is also available
  • start, stage and dist generate the optimised javascript
  • the optimised javascript file is selected when the application runs in prod mode (start, stage, dist)
• Source maps
  • Open your browser dev tool to set breakpoints or to see the guilty line of code when an exception is thrown
  • Source maps is disabled in production to prevent your users from seeing the source files. But it can easily be enabled in production too if needed
  • Two routes and a SourceMaps controller handle sending the Scala files to the browser. It's the Scala.js plugin that handles generating Source Maps
