Project mention: whats the advantages and disadvantages and limitations of worker thread in nodejs compared to multithreading in frameworks like spring ? | reddit.com/r/node | 2022-08-01
I've also done that, as it is the better solution for applications that are meant to be purely single-threaded. It's also easier than dealing with the async version (either promise-based or callback). Or at least it was, before I discovered https://github.com/google/zx.

Project mention: Alternatives to installing npm packages globally | reddit.com/r/javascript | 2022-06-20
Generally, npm libraries installed globally aren't standard library you'd use in your programs but more like CLI tools or full blown programs. As an example, fkill is the first one that comes to my mind.

standard-version
:trophy: Automate versioning and CHANGELOG generation, with semver.org and conventionalcommits.org
Project mention: Add Commitint, Commitizen, Standard Version, and Husky to SvelteKit Project | dev.to | 2022-04-09I tried gitmoji and followed Make everyone in your project write beautiful commit messages using commitlint and commitizen by @sohandutta, but end up using the setting in this article because it's not compatible to changelog generation of standard-version (Ref: Issue #859)

this allows you to import this Header component with import { Header } from 'path/Header' without Header/Header. Creating this structure manually is annoying, so one will benefit from some code generators like plop or hygen.

Got it, so more about the general idea of using Node to interact with a shell. Fair points but I'm not sure that's where zx falls. I'm looking at it in relation to projects like commander, oclif, and vorpal— frameworks for authoring and packaging local-use CLI tools written in JS, typically aimed at people who know JS and work in a terminal but don't know shell scripting. Those have the overhead of learning a framework, and don't do anything to help you work with the shell. zx seems to come from the other direction: instead of an esoteric framework, shell concepts and shell commands in a Node script.

Fine, but I need a package release tool and release-it tools looks good. I install, configure and on the last step - publishing - I find out that this lib does not support monorepo... https://github.com/release-it/release-it/issues/831 and the release-it-yarn-workspaces lib does not support the latest version of release-it https://github.com/rwjblue/release-it-yarn-workspaces/issues/68

Finally with help of the run-s cli command we create a build script that runs the command sequentially. So run-s build:* will first run remix build followed by build:css script.

Project mention: How are you bundling a React Component Library? | reddit.com/r/reactjs | 2021-12-12
At first i thought that this was THE solution but looking deeper at the source code, this tool is a wrapper around a wrapper around a wrapper.... Don't get me wrong, it probably works, but it's currently using a rollup configuration that was created in 2018, the package itself has not seen any updates in 17 months and has 106 open issues. Also the owner says himself that he's not able to work that much on it anymore and suggest to use TSDX which in return hasn't been updated in several months, many open issues and extensive customization is recommended with patch-package which already in itself is a red-flag :(
