Transparency

Principles

convention over configuration
pure commands under the hood
don't repeat yourself
following the generic instead of the influenced way
keep the dependencies always up to date

Demo

There are some working examples:

* Arguments agains Cypress:

reinvent wheel

detect css selectors

BDD test syntax

principals

large tooling

a lot of binaries

many dependencies

ci integration vs selenium hub

It is difficult to keep focus with Cypress as it is more a nice tool than an effective tool. It is expected that a lot of time will be invested to justify the requirements of a project.

** TSLint is deprecated.

*** Webhint is not practical for the development of components, since component tags often have no relation to standard HTML. In addition, the webhint package alone is over 100 MB in size. I have good by using a IDE webhint plugin, like VSCode webhint.

**** TestCafe The idea that defined TestCafe architecture was that you don't really need an external driver to run end-to-end tests in the browser. That's interesting.

Structure

Vanilla Java-/TypeScript are supported by default. That means for example custom elements and any plain Java-/TypeScript code.

@leanup/cli ✔️
@leanup/cli-vanilla (optional) ✔️

Frameworks

Vanilla Java-/TypeScript are supported by default. That means for example custom elements and any plain Java-/TypeScript code.

The selection of the following frameworks depends in parts on the following references:

Currently the following framework extensions are available:

Extensions

A separate package contains some nice but not required addons for webpack.

Thinks

There a separate packages for important application features.

@leanup/git-hooks ✔️
@leanup/form ✔️
@leanup/lib ✔️
@leanup/ul ⌛

Replaced environment variables

The following variable names are replaced by the values from package.json file in the bundle:

Name	Description
APP_AUTHER	The value of the `author` attribute from the package.json file.
APP_HOMEPAGE	The value of the `homepage` attribute from the package.json file.
APP_NAME	The value of the `name` attribute from the package.json file.
APP_VERSION	The value of the `version` attribute from the package.json file.
NODE_ENV	The value of the `version` attribute from the package.json file.

For example:

package.json:

{
  "name": "@scope/my-app",
  "version": "1.1.0",
  "description": "This CLI brings along all required tools to serve, test and build multi framework SPAs",
  "author": "Martin Oppitz <npmjs@martinoppitz.com>",
  "homepage": "https://leanupjs.org",
  ...

App code:

const APP_METADATA = {
  author: '$$APP_AUTHER$$',
  homepage: '$$APP_HOMEPAGE$$',
  name: '$$APP_NAME$$',
  version: '$$APP_VERSION$$',
  environment: '$$NODE_ENV$$', // development | test | production ⌛
};
console.log(APP_METADATA);
