This is NOT a boilerplate. It is nothing more than a small and silly demo of some concepts, discussed in the talk "React - Putting it all together", presented on january 30th of 2017 for HTML5mtl, by Guyllaume Cardinal.
All that is interesting here is the code, but if you do feel the need to run the project, you can do so easily if you have Docker installed:
make && make dev
// Project will run at localhost:50000
If you don't have Docker
yarn install && ./node_modules/.bin/gulp webpack:server
// Project will run at localhost:3000
