Views (Components)

Add more files into your ./src/js/views and import them in ./src/js/layout.jsx.

Context

This boilerplate comes with a centralized general Context API. The file ./src/js/store/store.js has a base structure for the store, we encourage you to change it and adapt it to your needs.

React Context docs

The Context.Provider is already set, you can use the Context.Consumer to get the store and actions from the Context. Check /views/demo.jsx to see a demo.
