    • Sample React project

    This guide will help you run a sample React project from GitHub. It is a ready-to-use application with several live Flexmonster demos. Get the sample project to try out Flexmonster.

    To integrate Flexmonster into an existing React project, see integration with React.

    Prerequisites

    Step 1. Get the sample React project

    Download the sample project with the flexmonster create command. You can choose an ES6-based or TypeScript-based project:

    ES6

    flexmonster create react es6 -r

    This command downloads the React + ES6 project from GitHub and launches it in the browser. To shut down the project from the console, press Ctrl + C.

    The sample project is located inside the flexmonster-react-es6-project/ folder in your current working directory.

    TypeScript

    flexmonster create react typescript -r

    This command downloads the React + TypeScript project from GitHub and launches it in the browser. To shut down the project from the console, press Ctrl + C.

    The sample project is located inside the flexmonster-react-typescript-project/ folder in your current working directory.

    Step 2. Check out the project’s structure

    Our sample project was created using Vite, so most of the project’s files are typical of Vite-based projects.

    Now take a look at the files specific to our sample project:

    ES6

    • src/components/UIElements/ — routes, menus, and toggle elements used in the sample project.
    • src/components/ReactFlexmonsterExamples/ — demos that cover different aspects of Flexmonster usage in React:
      • Creating the pivot table (PivotTableDemo.jsx)
      • Handling events (HandlingEvents.jsx)
      • Using API calls (UsingAPICalls.jsx)
      • Updating data at runtime (UpdatingData.jsx)
      • Customizing the Toolbar (CustomizingToolbar.jsx)
      • Customizing the grid (CustomizingGrid.jsx)
      • Integrating with Highcharts (WithHighcharts.jsx)
      • Integrating with amCharts (WithAmcharts.jsx — amCharts 5; WithAmcharts4.jsx — amCharts 4)

    TypeScript

    • src/components/UIElements/ — routes, menus, and toggle elements used in the sample project.
    • src/components/ReactFlexmonsterExamples/ — demos that cover different aspects of Flexmonster usage in React:
      • Creating the pivot table (PivotTableDemo.tsx)
      • Handling events (HandlingEvents.tsx)
      • Using API calls (UsingAPICalls.tsx)
      • Updating data at runtime (UpdatingData.tsx)
      • Customizing the Toolbar (CustomizingToolbar.tsx)
      • Customizing the grid (CustomizingGrid.tsx)
      • Integrating with Highcharts (WithHighcharts.tsx)
      • Integrating with amCharts (WithAmcharts.tsx — amCharts 5; WithAmcharts4.tsx — amCharts 4)
