• React DnD
• Some Animation library

• Q: Why no Redux?

  A: Too much boilercode, hard to maintain and slow to code. Rather use React-Query, which fetches, parses, caches data for you. Or in case if you need global storage for your app, React Context will probably do fine , but in huge apps where global state changes frequently - Redux is probably better option

• Q: Why use this instead of Create-React-App?

  A: CRA is really cool, but it becomes really frustrating when you want to customize project setup, configs, and here everything is easily accessible

• Q: Why use this exact boilerplate?

  A: This is perfect barebones boilerplate i wanted in my development, which could be helpful for you. Its pretty much just a skeleton, so you can build up your own structure and project. I hope this project gives pretty quick start to code stuff

• Inline SVG

  This project supports inline SVGs, to in order to use it in the app, you have to import SVG first: import Star from './star.svg', then use it like this: <Star className="my-svg" />
