What is it?

ice.js is a framework for building React applications that aims to work out of the box. It includes built-in support for ES6+, TypeScript, Less, Sass, and CSS Modules without requiring manual configuration, along with file-system routing, state management, and data request utilities.

The framework can pre-render pages at build time (SSG) or at request time (SSR), and it offers a plugin system that lets the community publish reusable solutions. It also targets multiple platforms, including the web, mini-programs, and Weex.

A new project can be created with the create-ice initializer using a provided scaffold template, then started on a local dev server.
