Silex Plugin Starter

A good place to start writing a Silex plugin. It supports server and/or client side plugins, in Javascript and TypeScript. Check Silex developer docs if you need help or join the discussions in the forum

Start creating your plugin from src/main.js or src/main.ts, read the Development section

TODO for your plugin

Here is a list of things to do before distributing your plugin to Silex users

• [ ] Replace silex-plugin-starter in all files with your plugin name
• [ ] Choose Javascript or TypeScript: edit rollup configs and just change the input from main.ts to main.js
• [ ] Choose client side and or server side: edit build script in package.json, add/remove npm run build:client or npm run builde:server
• [ ] Tests: when writing tests for the client, add a "doc block" with @jest-environment jsdom
• [ ] Automate npm publish with github actions: you need to set the package name in package.json and the action secret NPM_SECRET in github
• [ ] Remove this "TODO" section and fill in the blanks in the rest of the README
• [ ] Show some gif/demo if possible
• [ ] Run npm test and npm run lint:fix, create a version with npm version patch then push to github with git push oringin main --follow-tags which will publish to npm thanks to github actions
