/tooling

Here's a couple of things that I include in my go-to stack:

• Commitlint: helps you and your team adhere to a commit convention, by checking checks if your commit messages meet the conventional commit format

• Prettier: only thing better than looking at beautiful code is not having to worry about formatting it

• NextJS: can't believe I put off working on NextJS for so long; it is an absolute delight!

• Styled components: CSS-in-JS just works

• TypeScript: type-safe code means that refactoring and catching bugs at code-write time itself becomes the norm

• Redux Toolkit: an opinionated toolset for much more efficient redux development

and here's a couple of packages that I've been keeping an eye out for:

• Rome: an approach to "Standardizing the web development experience" by consolidating a linter, compiler, bundler, and more for JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML, Markdown, and CSS.

• Vite: Taking the concepts of Snowpack and Parcel to a whole another level

• Tailwind: CSS framework with a focus on utility classes instead of prebuilt components

• Svelte: Component framework which unlike React and Vue (which primarily run in the browser), runs during the compile step at build time
