create-react-app

Starting from version 1.17.0 there are two official create-react-app templates:

  • cra-template-particles: Simple ReactJS template with full screen particles, using JavaScript
  • cra-template-particles-typescript: Simple ReactJS template with full screen particles, using TypeScript

You can simply install them using the create-react-app command like this:

$ create-react-app your_app --template particles

or

$ create-react-app your_app --template particles-typescript
