redux-devtools VS vite

Also, you should use redux-devtools extension to get the most out of any react-redux-based project.

Use NgRx's action stream as a logging solution. Dispatch actions instead of logging. You don't have to worry about the state management part or anything either. Add the store-devtools package along with the base store package. It'll let you configure only logging while in development mode and a few other options. Then, install the Redux Devtools extension into your browser. That will give you a view of the dispatched actions and any data you want to pass along with them. It has a filter, so you can tag your actions like you normally would as described in the docs. Like, "[Log Level] [Feature] log message". Then, filter them in the dev tools to see just what you want. You can see a screenshot of it here. You may even like some of its other features and maybe you'll pick up more of the pattern as you see fit.

Redux DevTools is a browser extension that allows developers to inspect and debug Redux stores. This tool helps developers to track state changes, actions, and other data related to the Redux store. You can download it from its official GitHub repository: https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools.

Redux dev tools

You can still keep your custom hooks in separate files, maybe in a folder called state. You could migrate to a state library when things start to seem unmanageable, or when you want one of the many cool features that a state library can offer, like automatically persisting parts of state to your user's storage using middleware (Redux docs, Zustand docs), easily managing API connections and query caching with RTK Query, or having a log of every state change with the ability to revert/go back in time to debug state changes with Redux Devtools (also works with Zustand).

With the redux-devtools-extension, we can now easily see all the actions that have been dispatched, as well as the current state of our store. This extension also allows us to time travel, meaning we can go back and forth through different states to see how our application got to where it is, as shown in the image below.

We need to see your RECEIVE_BENCHES action creator as well as dispatch call to tell you more. You should inspect what is going on in your reducer, either by setting a breakpoint in your editor's debug mode, by using Redux DevTools (https://github.com/reduxjs/redux-devtools), or simply by writing dirty console.log and debugger calls.

When an action is dispatched, all of the reducers will be notified and every single one of them will check if they can handle the action. Not only that, but the Redux dev tools will be a mess trying to see what action was fired when. That’s why we should try to think of actions as events that happened and not what the action is changing. For example, we should rather have an action called userLoggedIn than setUserId.

Vite focuses on providing an extremely fast development server and workflow speed in web development. It uses its own ES module imports during development, speeding up the startup time.

Vite and Next.js are both top 5 modern development framework right now. They are both great depending on your use case so we’ll discuss 4 areas: Architecture, main features, developer experience and production readiness. After learning about these we’ll have a better idea of which one is best for your project.

import { defineConfig } from 'vite' import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react-swc' import path from 'path' // https://vitejs.dev/config/ export default defineConfig({ plugins: [react()], server: { port: 3000 }, css: { devSourcemap: true }, resolve: { alias: { '~': path.resolve(__dirname, './src') } } })

I am currently utilizing Vite:

Homepage: https://vitejs.dev/

Without any adding any dependencies you can connect react props to raw css at runtime with nothing but css variables (aka "custom properties"). If you add CSS modules on top you don't have to worry about affecting the global scope so components created in this way can be truly modular and transferrable. I use this with vite.

Little confused as to why it has vite in it‘s name, it seems unrelated to https://vitejs.dev/

it says in their docs that they recommend Vite https://vitejs.dev/

it goes like this.

1. you create a repo folder, you cd into it.

2. you create a client template using vite which can be plain typescript, or uses frameworks such as react or vue, at https://vitejs.dev/guide/

3. you cd in that client directory, you npm install, then you npm run dev, it should show you that it works at localhost:5173

4. you follow the instructions on your url, you do npm install @web3modal/wagmi @wagmi/core @wagmi/connectors viem

5. you follow the further instructions.

> It seems like this is for npm or yarn to pull from a remote repository maintained by @wagmi for instance. But then what?

you install the wagmi modules, then you import them in your js code, those code can run upon being loaded or upon user actions such as button clicks

> Do I just symlink to the node_modules directory somehow? Use browserify? Or these days I'd use webpack or whatever the cool kids are using these days?

no need for those. browserify is old school way of transpiling commonjs modules into browser-compatible modules. webpack is similar. vite replaces both webpack and browserify. vite also uses esbuild and swc under the hood which replaces babel.

> I totally get how node package management works ... for NODE. But all these client-side JS projects these days have docs that are clearly for the client-side but the ES2015 module examples they show seem to leave out all instructions for how to actually get the files there, as if it's obvious.

pretty much similar actually. except on client-side, you have src and dist folders. when you run "npm run build" vite will compile the src dir into dist dir. the outputs are the static files that you can serve with any http server such as npx serve, or caddy, or anything really.

> What gives? And finally, what exactly does "browserify" do these days, since I think Node supports both ES modules and and CJS modules? I also see sometimes UMD universal modules

vite supports both ecmascript modules and commonjs modules. but these days you'll just want to stick with ecmascript which makes your code consistently use import and export syntax, and you get the extra benefit of it working well with your vscode intellisense.

> In short, I'm a bit confused how to use package management properly with browsers in 2024: https://modern-web.dev/guides/going-buildless/es-modules/

if people want plain js there is unpkg.com and esm.sh way, but the vite route is the best for you as it's recommended and tested by the providers of your modules.

> And finally, if you answer this, can you spare a word about typescript? Do we still need to use Babel and Webpack together to transpile it to JS, and minify and tree-shake, or what?

I recommend typescript, as it gives you better type-safety and better intellisense, but it really depends. If you're new to it, it can slow you down at first. But as your project grows you'll eventually see the value of it. In vite there are options to scaffold your project in pure js or ts.

First you have to know that all those react projects are created using Vite, and for each of them, you need change the vite.config.ts file by adding the following configuration:

CSSHooks works with React, Prereact, Solid.js, and Qwik, and we’re going to use Vite with the React configuration. First, let's create a project called css-hooks and install Vite:
