📌What is this?

This is a really tiny npm package developed by @helleworld_.

The point of this package was to avoid publishing empty links in my webpages and articles.

I usually forgot to check if I left any href or target attributes empty in my HTML, so this little package marks those links so I can check them before publishing my web/article.

💡 TL;DR: This will automatically mark your empty/misspelled links in your HTML so you can check them before publishing your site.

📌Installation

You should use this as an extra css file.

Without any js framework

This method is meant only for those who aren't using any js framework such as Vue, Angular or React.

1. Install this package using npm install no-more-empty-links-html in your command line, inside the root folder of your project.

2. Add the following: <link rel="stylesheet" href="node_modules/no-more-empty-links-html/nomorelinkerrors.css"> in the head of your index.html file. Please note, if you have your links stylized, this styles may be overrided by them. Avoid styling your links while using this css file for development and testing.

3. Delete or comment the part where you import this css file when you're finished developing or testing with it.

4. Ready to go.
