  • tailwindcss-alpinejs-starter

    An opinionated starter template based on tainwindCSS, alpine.js, postcss and esbuild.

    You can use the provided starter template freely at https://github.com/wittyprogramming/tailwindcss-alpinejs-starter

  • Alpine.js

    A rugged, minimal framework for composing JavaScript behavior in your markup.

    Alpine.js is very similar to tailwind but for the javascript. It provides the features of Vue.js with a much lower cost and - I think - a most suitable replacement for jQuery than other frameworks. If the code requirements are very light, then a build system is not required. Just add the Alpine.js package in a script tag and sprinkle your login in the HTML DOM file.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • esbuild

    An extremely fast bundler for the web

    My preference is to use Typescript (I love the IntelliSense capabilities that provide); therefore, I use the Evan Wallace's esbuild, a fast Javascript/Typescript bundler, and a minifier.

  • concurrently

    Discontinued Moved under github.com/open-cli-tools/concurrently (by kimmobrunfeldt)

    To run both commands, will use the concurrently npm package:

  • Tailwind CSS

    A utility-first CSS framework for rapid UI development.

    Tailwind CSS is a highly customizable, low-level CSS framework gaining popularity lately. It is not opinionated as it gives you the building blocks for styling your components.

  • PostCSS

    Transforming styles with JS plugins

    Unfortunately, tailwind requires a build system to take advantage of all its features. Furthermore, during deployment, the unused CSS must be removed because the style file becomes very large (>2Mb). The PostCSS and its plugins come to the rescue.
