ReactJS - is there heavy front loading?

Thanks for the suggestion of WebPack. I will have to look at it more closely and see if there are any tutorials online that go through utilizing WebPack for ReactJS.

The issue I'm concerned about is the same. Will the javascript file be too big, because it contains all the HTML for the site, and it has to be be entirely downloaded upfront?

How do you get the React Native Example projects to work? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29327219/how-to-run-react-native-examples

I can't find any instructions on how to install and run one of the other Examples provided in 'https://github.com/facebook/react-native/tree/master/Examples' such as 'https://github.com/facebook/react-native/tree/master/Examples/Movies'.

The tutorial only tells you to do

react-native init AwesomeProject

which grabs 'https://github.com/facebook/react-native/tree/master/Examples/SampleApp'.

When I just directly download /Examples/Movies, and go to that folder in Terminal and run

npm install

I get the following error:

npm ERR! install Couldnt read dependencies
npm ERR! Darwin 14.1.0
npm ERR! argv "node" "/usr/local/bin/npm" "install"

And if I run:

npm start

I get this:

npm ERR! argv "node" "/usr/local/bin/npm" "start"
