React Boilerplate

A Clean Foundation for Your Next React Project

Stop configuring and start building. Every Fabricate app starts from React 19 and TypeScript, hand-written CSS in public/styles.css, and a server in src/index.ts inside a Durable Object with built-in SQLite. There is no build step to run: the platform bundles it. Describe your application and build on solid ground.

Template Features

Everything you need to build your react boilerplate, ready out of the box.

TypeScript First

Strict TypeScript configuration with path aliases and comprehensive type safety across your entire project.

Organized Folder Structure

Components, hooks, utilities, and routes organized following proven conventions that scale with your app.

Hand-Written CSS

Styles live in plain CSS in public/styles.css, with no utility framework to configure. Ask for a component library from npm and the AI adds it.

Error Boundaries

Global and route-level error boundaries catch failures gracefully instead of crashing the entire app.

No Build Step to Run

The platform bundles your code for the live preview and for publishing, so there is no dev server or build pipeline to configure.

Client and Server Routes

Client-side pages in src/client.tsx, plus server routes in src/index.ts inside the app Durable Object.

Why a React Boilerplate Saves Hours on Every Project

Every new React project starts with the same decisions: TypeScript or JavaScript, which bundler, which CSS approach, how to structure folders, how to handle routing, and how to manage errors. Making these decisions and configuring them correctly takes hours. The Fabricate React boilerplate makes these choices for you: React 19 and TypeScript, hand-written CSS in public/styles.css, a server in src/index.ts inside a Durable Object with built-in SQLite, and error boundaries for resilience. The platform bundles it, so there is no build step to run. You start with working code instead of configuration files.

Folder Structure: The page lives in public/index.html, styles in public/styles.css, the React app in src/client.tsx, and the server in src/index.ts. The AI adds components and modules as the project grows.

Developer Experience: The live preview updates as the AI writes code, with no dev server or bundler to configure. The boilerplate removes friction so you focus on features.

Production Readiness: Error boundaries, responsive layouts, and browser-verified publishing to its own Cloudflare Worker mean the foundation is ready for real users from day one.

Build a task management app with a sidebar for project navigation, a main content area for task lists, and a detail panel for editing individual tasks. Include light and dark modes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this different from create-react-app?
There is no bundler to configure at all: the platform bundles the app for you. You get React 19 and TypeScript, hand-written CSS, error boundaries, and a server with built-in SQLite storage, none of which create-react-app provides.
Can I add a backend later?
The backend is already there: src/index.ts runs inside a Durable Object with its own SQLite database. Describe your backend requirements and Fabricate adds server routes, tables, and logic on top of that foundation.
Is the folder structure opinionated?
It is deliberately small: public/index.html and public/styles.css for the page and styles, src/client.tsx for the React app, and src/index.ts for the server. The AI adds files as the app grows.
Does it include testing?
No test runner is scaffolded. Before an app can be published, Fabricate opens it in a real browser to check that it loads. If you want unit tests in your exported code, describe them and the AI writes them.
Can I deploy it anywhere?
Fabricate publishes your app as its own Cloudflare Worker inside a Workers for Platforms dispatch namespace, not to Cloudflare Pages. The code is yours either way: on a paid plan you can download it as a ZIP or export it to GitHub. The server runs in a Durable Object, so self-hosting it means deploying to your own Cloudflare account.
