This is the finished project from the MDN Web Docs article "Understanding client-side web development tools".
"Client-side tooling can be intimidating, but this series of articles aims to illustrate the purpose of some of the most common client-side tool types, explain the tools you can chain together, how to install them using package managers, and control them using the command line. We finish up by providing a complete toolchain example showing you how to get productive." -MDN Web Docs
This project is great for a beginner or if you need a quick refresher on basic frontend toolchaining concepts and setup. You will get a great walkthrough of:
- Client-side tooling overview
- Command line refresher
- Package management basics
- Sample toolchain setup
- Deploying your final project
- My final project is an app that uses a NASA api that returns data on space objects that may or may not impact our planet.
This project was exactly what I needed at the time. I had been working a lot with WordPress and Elementor. I had gotten a bit rusty using command line, bundlers, etc., and needed a quick sensible walkthrough. I was familiar with all the topics, since they were things I had gone over in bootcamp, but needed something I could do in an afternoon that would bring it all back.
If that describes you I recommend this quick little project. It is simple yet thorough and not very time consuming. At the end of it, the rust was off, I learned some new things, got clarity on others, and had a quick littly project to show for it.
