Dashboard for React - Get Started

This project demonstrates how you can incorporate a DevExpress Dashboard component into a client-side app built with React. Use it as a template when you need to create a similar web application.

The example uses a modular client-server approach. The server (backend) project communicates with the client (frontend) application that includes all the necessary styles, scripts and HTML templates. Note that the script version on the client must match the version of libraries on the server.

Quick Start

Server

In the asp-net-core-server folder run the following command:

dotnet run

The server starts at http://localhost:5000 and the client gets data from http://localhost:5000/api/dashboard. To debug the server, run the asp-net-core-server application in Visual Studio and change the client's endpoint property according to the listening port: https://localhost:44307/api/dashboard.

See the following section for information on how to install NuGet packages from the DevExpress NuGet feed: Install DevExpress Controls Using NuGet Packages.

This server allows CORS requests from all origins with any scheme (http or https). This default configuration is insecure: any website can make cross-origin requests to the app. We recommend that you specify the client application's URL to prohibit other clients from accessing sensitive information stored on the server. Learn more: Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)

Client

In the dashboard-react-app folder, run the following commands:

npm install
npm start

Open http://localhost:3000/ in your browser to see the result.
