Fruit
Automatically generate your rollup.js boilerplate
Overview
The article discusses the fruit library, which aims to generate rollup library boilerplate. It provides a simplified way to configure a baseline rollup library, allowing users to start building their library right away. The article also compares rollup and webpack, stating that rollup is preferred for building libraries while webpack is better for building applications.
Features
- Generates rollup library boilerplate
- Provides preferred configuration options
- Supports both Node and React libraries
- Includes eslint configuration from Airbnb's eslint config
- Uses Babel 7 for transpiling
- Includes Jest for testing
- Sets up Travis CI for building, linting, and testing
- Supports commitlint for enforcing commit message conventions
- Supports semantic-release for automated package deployment
Summary
The fruit library simplifies the process of setting up a rollup library by providing preconfigured boilerplate code. It supports both Node and React libraries and includes various features such as eslint configuration, Babel transpiling, Jest testing, Travis CI integration, commit message linting, and semantic-release for automated package deployment. With fruit, developers can quickly start building their libraries with minimal configuration.
- React
React is a widely used JavaScript library for building user interfaces and single-page applications. It follows a component-based architecture and uses a virtual DOM to efficiently update and render UI components
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Rollup
RollupJS is a popular and efficient JavaScript module bundler that takes the code from multiple modules and packages them into a single optimized file, minimizing the overall size of the application and improving its performance.
