code-station v1.0.4

📝 Code-Station

Brief

A lightweight, efficient, and interactive coding environment. You can write JavaScript, see it, execute it, write comprehensive documentation using markdown, and share it with others.

Features

• Click any text cell (including this one) to edit it
• The code in each code editor is all joined together into one file. If you define a variable in cell #1, you can refer to it in any following cells
• You can show any React components, string, number, or anything else by calling the show function. This is a function built into the environment. Call show multiple times to show multiple values
• Re-order or delete cells using the buttons on the top right
• Add new cells by hovering on the divider between each cell

Installation

All of your changes get saved to the file you opened Code-Station with. You can run npx code-station serve test.js, all of the text and code you write will be saved to the test.js file automatically.

npx code-station serve <file name> -p <port number> ex. npx code-station serve notebook.js -p 4000 <> optional

Development

• Do not use npm to install new packages, use lerna add to install the package to a specific directory lerna add <package>[@version] [--dev] [--exact] [--peer] --scope=[directory] ex. lerna add react@18.2.0 --exact --scope=@code-station/local-client

• Using ESBuild to bundle entire CLI. cd to the cli directory and run npm run prepublishOnly

• Start up proxy server. cd to the cli directory and run node index.js serve

• Publishing to NPM Sign in to npm npm login Run below code in root directory to publish to npm cli folder depends on local-client, you need to create an organization on npm to publish three packages" lerna publish --no-push

• For any additional inquires, feel free to contact me on LinkedIn

Iteration Opportunities

1. More user-friendly output
2. Frontend improvement (fixed code editor height)
3. React syntax color highlighter
