I love to use @StandardJS to enforce consistent code style in all my #JavaScript / #NodeJS projects. You can easily do that with:

```
npx standard
```

But I prefer to setup @geteslint for more extensibility.

🧵 Here's how I do it... 👇
1. Initialize a new project with:

```
mkdir new-project
cd new-project
npm init -y
```
2. install #eslint with the following command:

```
npm i --save-dev eslint
```
3. initialize #eslint using the guided procedure:

```
node_modules/.bin/eslint --init
```
4. Now you can easily validate your code with:

```
node_modules/.bin/eslint src
```

You could also create a shortcut script in your package.json
5. [BONUS] if you want your code to be validated before every commit you can do that with the help of `lint-staged` (github.com/okonet/lint-st…):

Just install it into your project with:

```
npx mrm lint-staged
```
6. [BONUS 2] You can install the eslint plugin for your favourite editor and enable the option "Format on save" to have your code automatically fixed as you type! ✨👨‍💻

I hope this is useful! Let me know what your setup looks like 🤓
(apparently this time I managed not to break the thread, SUCCESS 🥳)

Here are 6 of my favorite third-party libraries when building CLI applications using #NodeJS

Want to know why?👇🧵
commander ➡️ npm.im/commander

Simple yet powerful command-line argument parser. It automatically generates help messages and can be configured to support multiple commands.

I ❤️ it bc it's not prescriptive, you can organize the code as you want (1 file or more).
conf ➡️ npm.im/conf

How many times did you have to store settings (creds & other preferences)? Where do you save the conf file? Which format do you use? How do you load and update the file?

Conf takes care of all of this (and more!) with an extremely simple API

"Yo, why are #JavaScript and its ecosystem so messy?!" 😡

Well, I am glad you asked... Let me tell you a story! 🤓

🧵👇
For starting... #JavaScript was not designed to be the language that it is today!

JS was created in 1995 by @BrendanEich for Netscape, a web browser that was trying to come up with a language to make the web more interactive
@BrendanEich #JS wasn't related w/ #Java, so why did they call it Java-Script?! Duh! 😳

Java was trendy! it was possible to build interactive sites by embedding Java apps in pages (applets). So it was mostly a #mktg move: "JS: the lightweight Java alternative" or something like that I guess

I have been confused for a while on what's the best way to implement a "to string" functionality for a #Rust struct. 🦀

The reason why this has been confusing to me is that there are indeed many ways to do that and they all have different purposes!

This is what I learned

👇🧵
The first thing that you can do is to just implement a simple `to_string()` function directly on your struct!

play.rust-lang.org/?version=stabl…
This is easy and it works! But the implementation is very specific to our struct.

The rest of the codebase doesn't really know that this type can be converted to a String and therefore you cannot build abstractions on top of this... 🤨

Do you know what's in a #JWT token?

Here's a quick thread to learn something about this! 👇
A JWT token (JSON Web Token) is just a string with a well-defined format. A sample token might look like this:

```
eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJoZWxsbyI6ImZyb20gSldUIn0.XoByFQCJvii_iOTO4xlz23zXmb4yuzC3gqrWNt3EHrg
```
There are 3 parts separated by a `.` (dot) character:

- header: eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9
- body: eyJoZWxsbyI6ImZyb20gSldUIn0
- signature: XoByFQCJvii_iOTO4xlz23zXmb4yuzC3gqrWNt3EHrg

@eleven_ty micro tip: Give eleventy some credit by injecting a "generator" meta tag in your HTML! 🔥

Frontpage and Dreamweaver used to get credit this way, why shouldn't we give Eleventy some credit too? 😇

(a short thread in 3 steps 👇) Image
STEP 1. Create a data file in `_data/site.js` with the following content: Image
STEP 2. Create your base layout `_includes/layout.njk` and use the variable `{{ site.generator }}`: Image

✨ Rob Pike's 5 Rules of #programming

#golang #simplicity

🧵👇
1️⃣ You can't tell where a program is going to spend its time. Bottlenecks occur in surprising places, so don't try to second guess and put in a speed hack until you've proven that's where the bottleneck is.
2️⃣ Measure. Don't tune for speed until you've measured, and even then don't unless one part of the code overwhelms the rest.
