Super-basic example of how server rendering works

Run npm install then npm start then kill it.

You can open index.html, wait a few seconds and see the app. Or you can node server.js and open http://localhost:4000/ to see the server rendered version. Note the better performance (due to simulated JS load time) and if you edit the text field the JS won't blow it away when it loads.

server.js React.renderToString is deprecated.

I got warning:

server.js

markup = React.renderToString(Timer());

warning

Warning: React.renderToString is deprecated. 
Please use ReactDOMServer.renderToString from require('react-dom/server') instead.

react-tool is deprecated

please update dependency and serer.js

//React.renderToString(Timer(), function(markup) {
// res.send(TEMPLATE.replace(PLACEHOLDER, markup));
res.send(TEMPLATE);
//});

I just run under the latest reactJS, it recommend to not calling React.
