  • ava

    Node.js test runner that lets you develop with confidence πŸš€

  • Project mention: Painless CLI integration testing | dev.to | 2024-01-10

    We use Jest Framework for testing. Jest is not a dogma, and, of course, in its place can be any other test runner, such as Mocha or Ava. Let's focus on tests. I'll provide a short example because I don’t want to waste your time. You can find the full version here. It's crucial to read the comments in the code below. Let's go!

  • svgo

    βš™οΈ Node.js tool for optimizing SVG files

  • Project mention: SVG Viewer – View, edit, and optimize SVGs | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-27

    Surprised this is being discussed here. It's worth noting that SVGOMG runs SVGO 3.0.0 while the latest version is 3.2.0 (so run SVGO locally for the latest optimizations), but I understand that once https://github.com/svg/svgo/pull/1943 is merged Jake will release an updated version of SVGOMG.

  • webpack-dashboard

    A CLI dashboard for webpack dev server

  • SingleFile

    Web Extension for saving a faithful copy of a complete web page in a single HTML file

  • Project mention: How SingleFile Transformed My Obsidian Workflow | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-26

    That's interesting. I have been saving articles as PDF files, which is browser-independent, but useful just for search and reference, a nuisance to quote/copy-and-paste.

    If I search only the computer, I don't get results from EBay and Amazon at the top. The idea of keeping the knowledge base separate from the primary notes is a good idea. In my case, that knowledge base is the file system, and the primary notes are whatever I choose.

    When I was using Evernote, the inbox was the knowledge base and notebooks were the focus. I just had too many different potential projects going on to manage this well.

    Looking to focus.

    I'll revisit Firefox and SingleFile.

    No I don’t think so. You probably want n8n if you’re keen on self-hosting.

  • Release It! πŸš€

    πŸš€ Automate versioning and package publishing

  • Project mention: Nx - Highlights of 2023 | dev.to | 2023-12-28

    Open source libraries and frameworks share a common necessity: the need to develop multiple packages cohesively and efficiently while managing their versioning and publishing to NPM. Nx has emerged as a go-to choice for handling such open source monorepos (as we'll explore further in the next section of this blog post). Until recently, one area Nx did not address directly was versioning and release management. Traditionally, this gap has been filled with tools like release-it, changesets, or custom Node scripts, similar to our approach in the Nx repository.
