TEMPLATE

IMPORTANT!

After compiling the code but BEFORE publishing, make sure to copy the package.json in src to dist.

TODO - create an automatic solution using xcopy.

HOW TO START

alt+shift+ctrl+k initiates the Shell Build task (to change this keybinding or view all keybindings, go to keybindings.json). By default, this deletes the dist folder and all contents, then it refactors / copies the code from src into dist and sets up watches for TypeScript, Sass, plus any patterns set in src/dev/file-watchers.ts.

CAVEATS

Module Compatibility in Browsers

Browsers cannot run fs and similar nodejs-specific modules. So if we want to use it for dev purposes (e.g., fileWatchers) we cannot reference any modules that use it from our main code (app.js and all referenced modules).

To get around this, we initiate it in package.json through a separate script.
