• Redux Thunk Thunk middleware for Redux - used in async actions
• React Router Redux Ruthlessly simple bindings to keep react-router and redux in sync
• fetch A window.fetch JavaScript polyfill
• style-loader, sass-loader and less-loader to allow import of stylesheets in plain css, sass and less,
• bootstrap-sass-loader and font-awesome-webpack to customize Bootstrap and FontAwesome
• ESLint, Airbnb Javascript/React Styleguide, Airbnb CSS / Sass Styleguide to maintain a consistent code style
• mocha to allow writing unit tests for the project
• redux-mock-store a mock store for your testing your redux async action creators and middleware
• expect Write better assertions
• Nock HTTP mocking and expectations library
• istanbul to generate coverage when running mocha

Backend

• Django
• Django REST framework Django REST framework is a powerful and flexible toolkit for building Web APIs.
• Django REST framework JSON Web Token JSON Web Token Authentication support for Django REST Framework
• WhiteNoise to serve files efficiently from Django
• Prospector a complete Python static analysis tool
• pytest a mature full-featured Python testing tool
• Mock mocking and testing Library
• Responses a utility for mocking out the Python Requests library
