Sharepoint 2013 React App
I am in an odd scenario where I have a Sharepont 2013 site collection. Sadly we do not have the app model turned on so I cannot use visual studio. I am using VS code to use the create-react-app scaffold and I cannot seem to do any fetch calls from local host 3000 (as its considered cross domain rest calls). This means when i run the dev server on local host I cant see how the data flows in/out. So I guess I have 2 questions.
- Is it truly possible to use local host to connect to sp 2013 with no app model (I have no hive access so no central admin)? Especially, when I keep getting CORS restrictions and 401 errors when trying to authenticate with a fetch rest call.
- If not would I literally have to run npm build and upload to sharepoint to test everything?
Are you talking about the SharePoint Framework SPFX yomen app generator?
If so that is not supported in SharePoint 2013.
Cheers

Yes sadly I am aware that I have no access to SPFX. It makes me cry a little on the inside every time I think about it. That being said I found a library called sp-rest-proxy. I hope that it can do what I am asking or I really just don't know if its possible in my scenario.
That sounds like a really bad time man, If its simple you could just use a script editor webpart.
otherwise development choices are very limited without using visual studio/sharepoint app model
