Tailor React Single-Page Application

This repo is an example application using the Mosaic frontend microservices architecture. Since the idea is that a separate team would be in charge of each of the fragments, there is some duplicate code within each of the fragments such as the Webpack configuration.

Structure

Three of the four fragments are small React applications that share several dependencies - react, react-dom, and classnames. Those three shared dependencies are listed as externals in their respective webpack configurations. The fourth fragment is the common bundle that provides the shared dependencies for the other three fragments to utilize. The dependency management is handled with RequireJS.
