Introduction

javascript 2015/es6/next introduces a lot of new cool features unfortunately not yet available in the current modern browsers. This starter kit contains all the tools you need to let you run your ES6 code on any kind of platform.

Philosophy

Just use what you really need

This project doesn't rely on any build system tool like gulp, grunt, duo... By using the make file and customizing the tasks in the tasks folder you should be able to develop any kind of javascript project just fitting it to your needs

javascript ES6

import helpers from './helpers/helpers'

/**
 * @class
 * An awesome script
 */
class Greeter {
  constructor(name = 'Dear Coder', text = 'hi there') {
    this.name = name
    this.text = text
  }
  get message() {
    return `${this.text} ${this.name}!`
  }
  set message(text) {
    this.text = helpers.trim(text)
  }
}

export default Greeter
var greeter = new Greeter()

console.log(greeter.message) // -> "hi there Dear Coder!"
// these white spaces will be trimmed
greeter.message = '   goodbye         '
console.log(greeter.message) // -> "goodbye Dear Coder!"

Tools available

Usage

Once you've downloaded the files in this repo please run the following command in your terminal from the project folder (it may require sudo):

$ npm install

Browsing the make file you will find all the available terminal commands to compile/test your project. This file contains also the script name used for the output All the build tasks available are based on the native javascript promises so you will be able to chain and combine them as you prefer

If you have installed correctly all the nodejs modules you can start writing your javascript modules into the src folder of course using the awesome javascript es6 syntax.

Available tasks

$ node make # or also `$ npm run default`

Convert the ES6 code into valid ES5 combining all the modules into one single file

$ node make build # or also `$ npm run build`

Run all the tests
