Getting Started

Why Zero-Build?

SPEED!

A production pipe-line should NOT be in your way while developing...

...however, npm build adds it when you need it

Project Structure

Polyfills

Todays "Evergreens" browsers support 99% of ES6, providing a pethra of capabilities, such as import, class, fetch, and promise. Depending on your desired browser support, you may find a polyfill to suit your needs, HOWEVER this build is designed to work with IE8+

...but such is beyond the scope of this starter package.

TODO

• add a ko.subscrible() utility to manage communication between components
• add a simple router
• add gulp build process for production builds
• add Jasmine for testing
• evaluate
  • jquery migrate patch
