Server

We're using hapi as the web server, so follow the trails in ./server.js, ./server/*. One thing that can be confusing is that we use the glue module to compose the server, see ./manifest.js.

Client

In it's default state, the front-end is essentially 5 single page apps, some with their own routes and some without. You can see this in the webpack configuration.

Client routes

We're using react-router on the front-end. Adding a whole new entry point will require a new server side render see ./server/web/. But adding a page to /login/, /account/ or /admin/ should just require a new entry in the appropriate routes.jsx file.

The SPAs (single page apps) that have multiple routes, have a client-side router:

So on the server, we only need to render the main payload and the client takes over once we render in the browser.
