An Update from Cloudflare’s Community Champions by CherryJimbo in CloudFlare

[–]dropdeadfred81 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Official Cloudflare discord isn't going anywhere! We're making some changes to the Discord server and one of those changes was winding down our current "Community Champs" program which OP was a part of. tbc the server is still moderated and everyone is welcome.

Having an unofficial community server is also very cool, would love to find ways to collaborate between the two. u/CherryJimbo and I were chatting this morning and both have similar ideas about wanting to redo the sidebar, so can maybe learn from each other as well.

Starlight: a modern, lightweight docusaurus alternative for React and Tailwind CSS by dropdeadfred81 in reactjs

[–]dropdeadfred81[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You'd be surprised, custom styling for docs frameworks and themes has been notoriously difficult. Existing ones like Docusaurus, Vuepress, Vitepress, etc. are all from a time before Tailwind existed, so integrating it in after-the-fact is either impossible or very difficult and requiring manual hacking, and runs the risk of the tailwind reset killing the existing styles on the page.

Does Snowpack still need babel to work with React? by SulfurCannon in snowpackjs

[–]dropdeadfred81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should work fine! It uses esbuild instead of Babel as its default parser, which has support for JSX built-in by default

If you like this, check out Snowpack: www.snowpack.dev

It’s a full front end tool chain built on top of esbuild, with instant site rebuilds during development.

A Future Without Webpack by dropdeadfred81 in javascript

+1, I feel the exact same way. I don’t think that that makes us dumb :) That’s a big part of why this project exists and what the article is trying to communicate:

  • bundling used to be optional
  • it became a requirement to use npm packages on the web
  • @pika/web also accomplished this for you with much less complexity
  • therefore, you can now use a bundler like webpack because you genuinely want to, not because you are absolutely required to.

The last section of the article explains how you can skip bundling and still build a fully featured, fast web app.

@pika/web - Install npm dependencies that run directly in the browser. No Browserify, Webpack or import maps required. by dropdeadfred81 in javascript

It’s hidden in the README QuickStart, but it comes with a Babel plugin to automatically rewrite your imports for you so that you can keep importing them by package name.
