How to set up the project

Disclaimer
Since I only use Yarn as my primary package manager, this repository will ignore package-lock.json file on commit.
If you prefer npm to Yarn, Please modify .gitignore file following your flavor.

git clone git@github.com:adhrinae/ts-react-parcel.git
cd ts-react-parcel
yarn install

How to start development for the application

# With type checking
yarn develop

# Transpile only
yarn start

Execute the command and you can run & test the application on localhost:1234 in the browser.

How to build the application

yarn build

The default output directory is /dist. You can change the destination wherever you want.

// package.json
// ...
"scripts": {
  // ...
  "build": "... parcel build ./src/index.html -d YOUR_OUTPUT_DIR --public-url '/'" <- Change here
}
// ...

How to test the application

yarn test       # run test once
yarn test:watch # watch mode

You have to create __tests__ directory at the same location of files which you want to test.
Test file's name should be SOURCE.test.ts/tsx/js or SOURCE.spec.ts/tsx/js.

Miscellaneous

This Project uses pre-commit hook for prettier and testing application.
If you don't like it, remove the husky package from your repository and erase following scripts.

yarn remove husky

then

// package.json
// ...
"husky": {
  "hooks": {
    "pre-commit": "npm run prettify && npm run test"
  }
},
// ...
