Ronins ReactThe Right Tools, Already Chosen

Stop researching. Start building. A production-ready React starter with battle-tested defaults.

Why Ronins React?

The JavaScript ecosystem moves fast. Too fast.

Every week brings new frameworks, new bundlers, new tools. AI is making this even faster. But you just want to build your app.

The reality:

  • npm has 3+ million packages — most are old or not safe
  • React is still #1 — 40% of developers use it, 11 million websites
  • Choosing the right tools takes days of research

We Did the Research

Ronins React is not just a template. It is opinionated curation.

We tested many tools and picked the best ones:

What You NeedWhat We ChoseWhy
Build ToolVite 7 + SWCFastest dev server, instant HMR
StylingTailwind CSS 4Industry standard, zero runtime
Componentsshadcn/uiOwn your code, not a dependency
RoutingReact Router 7Most popular, React team endorsed
Server StateTanStack Query 5Best caching and sync
ValidationZod 4TypeScript-first, runtime safe
Code QualityESLint 9 + PrettierClean, error-free code

Why Not Other Options?

OptionProblem
npm create viteOnly gives Vite + React. You add everything else. Takes hours.
Next.jsToo complex for simple apps. Server Components, App Router...
TanStack StartToo new. Still in beta. Not stable.
Create React AppDead project. No updates. Very slow.

Zero Decision Fatigue
