This one is a beast. Write your React JSX code, in ES6, compiled by Browserify and auto-reload all devices when the compilation is complete.

var babelify = require('babelify');

var browserify = require('browserify');
var browserSync = require('browser-sync').create();

// See watchify readme for details. Adding debug true for source-map generation.

var bundler = watchify(browserify('./app/js/app.js', watchify.args));
// Babel transform
bundler.transform(babelify.configure({
