React

1. cd in react_calendar/js/src
2. Install dependencies with yarn install
3. Copy the constants/.env.example.js file to constants/.env.local.js and set there your Drupal 8 development site url. It will be used while debugging React as a standalone app for JSON API requests
4. Edit App.js or the components
5. Run yarn start to start the React development server and test your app outside of Drupal (localhost:3000)
6. Run php build.php to bundle the dist js and css that are referenced by react_calendar.libraries.yml
