Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Requirements

  • Node.js ^8.10 or 10+
  • Yarn v1.2.1+, or npm v5.4+
  • Neutrino 9
  • webpack 4
  • webpack-cli 3
  • webpack-dev-server 3

Installation

@conduitvc/react can be installed via the Yarn client. Inside your project, make sure that the Neutrino and webpack related dependencies below are installed as development dependencies. You will also need React and React DOM for actual React development.

❯ yarn add --dev neutrino@next @conduitvc/react webpack webpack-cli webpack-dev-server
❯ yarn add react react-dom

Project Layout

@conduitvc/react follows the standard project layout specified by Neutrino. This means that by default all project source code should live in a directory named src in the root of the project. This includes JavaScript files, CSS stylesheets, images, and any other assets that would be available to import your compiled project.

After installing Neutrino and the React preset, add a new directory named src in the root of the project, with a single JS file named index.jsx in it.

❯ mkdir src && touch src/index.jsx

This React preset exposes an element in the page with an ID of root to which you can mount your application. Edit your src/index.jsx file with the following:

import { render } from 'react-dom';

render(<h1>Hello world!</h1>, document.getElementById('root'));

Now edit your project's package.json to add commands for starting and building the application:

{
  "scripts": {
    "start": "webpack-dev-server --mode development --open",
    "build": "webpack --mode production"
  }
}

Then create a .neutrinorc.js file alongside package.json, which contains your Neutrino configuration:

module.exports = {
  use: [
    '@neutrinojs/react',
  ],
};

And create a webpack.config.js file, that uses the Neutrino API to access the generated webpack config:

const neutrino = require('neutrino');

module.exports = neutrino().webpack();

Start the app, then open a browser to the address in the console:

❯ yarn start

Building

@conduitvc/react builds static assets to the build directory by default when running yarn build. You can either serve or deploy the contents of this build directory as a static site.

Static assets

If you wish to copy files to the build directory that are not imported from application code, use the @neutrinojs/copy preset alongside this one.

Deployment Path

By default @conduitvc/react assumes that your application will be deployed at the root of a domain (eg: https://www.my-app.com/), and so sets webpack's output.publicPath to '/', which means assets will be loaded from the site root using absolute paths.

If your app is instead deployed within a subdirectory, you will need to adjust the publicPath preset option. For example if your app is hosted at https://my-username.github.io/my-app/, you will need to set publicPath to '/my-app/'.

Alternatively, if you would like your app to be able to be served from any location, and are not using the HTML5 pushState history API or client-side routing, then you can set publicPath to the empty string, which will cause relative asset paths to be used instead.

Preset options

You can provide custom options and have them merged with this preset's default options to easily affect how this preset builds. You can modify React preset settings from .neutrinorc.js by overriding with an options object. Use an array pair instead of a string to supply these options in .neutrinorc.js.

The following shows how you can pass an options object to the React preset and override its options. See the Web documentation for specific options you can override with this object.

module.exports = {
  use: [
    ['@neutrinojs/react', {
      /* preset options */

      // Example: disable Hot Module Replacement
      hot: false,

      // Enables Flow syntax support. Set to true to enable.
      flow: false,

      // Enables TypeScript syntax support. Set to true to enable.
      typescript: false,

      // Controls webpack's `output.publicPath` setting.
      // See the "Deployment Path" section above for more info.
      publicPath: '/',

      // Example: change the page title
      html: {
        title: 'Epic React App',
      },

      // Target specific browsers with @babel/preset-env
      targets: {
        browsers: [
          'last 1 Chrome versions',
          'last 1 Firefox versions',
        ],
      },

      // Add additional Babel plugins, presets, or env options
      babel: {
        // Override options for @babel/preset-env:
        presets: [
          ['@babel/preset-env', {
            useBuiltIns: true,
          }],
        ],
      },
    }],
  ],
};

Customizing

To override the build configuration, start with the documentation on customization. @conduitvc/react does not use any additional named rules, loaders, or plugins that aren't already in use by the Web preset. See the Web documentation customization for preset-specific configuration to override.

For details on merging and overriding Babel configuration, read more about using the compile-loader merge once you are comfortable customizing your build.

If the need arises, you can also compile node_modules by referring to the relevant compile-loader documentation.

Advanced configuration

By following the customization guide and knowing the rule, loader, and plugin IDs from @neutrinojs/web, you can override and augment the build by providing a function to your .neutrinorc.js use array. You can also make these changes from the Neutrino API in custom middleware.

By default Neutrino, and therefore this preset, creates a single main index entry point to your application, and this maps to the index.* file in the src directory. The extension is resolved by webpack. This value is provided by neutrino.options.mains at neutrino.options.mains.index.

If you wish to output multiple pages, you can configure them like so:

module.exports = {
  options: {
    mains: {
      index: {
        // outputs index.html from src/index.*
        entry: 'index',
        // Additional options are passed to html-webpack-plugin, and override
        // any defaults set via the preset's `html` option.
        title: 'Site Homepage',
      },
      admin: {
        // outputs admin.html from src/admin.*
        entry: 'admin',
        title: 'Admin Dashboard',
      },
      account: {
        // outputs account.html from src/user.* using a custom HTML template.
        entry: 'user',
        inject: true,
        template: 'my-custom-template.html',
      },
    }
  },
  use: ['@conduitvc/react'],
};

Vendoring

External dependencies are automatically split into separate chunks from the application code, by the new webpack SplitChunksPlugin.

Example: The splitChunks settings can be adjusted like so:

module.exports = {
  use: [
    '@conduitvc/react',
    (neutrino) => {
      neutrino.config
        .optimization
          .merge({
            splitChunks: {
              // Decrease the min. size before extra chunks are created to 10KB
              minSize: 10000,
            },
          });
    },
  ],
};

Hot Module Replacement

While @conduitvc/react supports Hot Module Replacement for your app using React Hot Loader, it does require some application-specific changes in order to operate.

First, install react-hot-loader as a dependency; this must be React Hot Loader v4+:

❯ yarn add react-hot-loader

Neutrino will then automatically load React Hot Loader the next time a build is performed. Next, you need to mark your root component as hot-exported. For example, if your src/index main entry renders a root component from App.jsx, then the exported component needs to have a hot export:

// src/App.jsx
import React from 'react';
import { hot } from 'react-hot-loader';

@hot(module)
export default class App extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return <div>Hello World!</div>;
  }
}

See the React Hot Loader docs for any API specifics on hot reloading other components.
