# Three.js Webpack ES6 Boilerplate
https://github.com/paulmg/ThreeJS-Webpack-ES6-Boilerplate/
A basic boilerplate for a Three.js project including the use of Webpack and ES6 syntax via Babel.
## Project Structure
```
build - Directory for built and compressed files from the npm build script
src - Directory for all dev files
├── css - Contains all SCSS files, that are compiled to `src/public/assets/css`
├── js - All the Three.js app files, with `app.js` as entry point. Compiled to `src/public/assets/js` with webpack
│ ├── app
│ │ ├── components - Three.js components that get initialized in `main.js`
│ │ ├── helpers - Classes that provide ideas on how to set up and work with defaults
│ │ ├── managers - Manage complex tasks such as GUI or input
│ │ └── model - Classes that set up the model object
│ ├── data - Any data to be imported into app
│ └── utils - Various helpers and vendor classes
└── public - Used by webpack-dev-server to serve content and is copied over to build folder with build command. Place external vendor files here.
```
## Getting started
Install dependencies:
```
npm install
```
Then run dev script:
```
npm run dev
```
Spins up a webpack dev server at localhost:8080 and keeps track of all js and sass changes to files. Only reloads automatically upon save of js files.
## Build
```
npm run build
```
Cleans existing build folder while linting js folder and then copies over the public folder from src. Then sets environment to production and compiles js and css into build.
## Other NPM Scripts
You can run any of these individually if you'd like with the npm run command:
* prebuild - Cleans build folder and lints `src/js`
* clean - Cleans build folder
* lint - Runs lint on `src/js` folder and uses `.eslintrc` file in root as linting rules
* webpack-server - Create webpack-dev-server with hot-module-replacement
* webpack-watch - Run webpack in dev environment with watch
* dev:sass - Run node-sass on `src/css` folder and output to `src/public` and watch for changes
* dev:js - Run webpack in dev environment without watch
* build:dir - Copy files and folders from `src/public` to `build`
* build:sass - Run node-sass on `src/css` and output compressed css to `build` folder
* build:js - Run webpack in production environment
