Just some notes about my attempt to upgrade to webpack 4

If you enjoyed reading this, I'm intending to do more blogging like this over here: https://cdgd.tech

This is not a complaint about Webpack or v4 in any way. This is just a record of my process trying it out so I could provide feedback to the webpack team

Hmm... I don't see any docs for 4.0 on https://webpack.js.org. I guess I'll just wing it. All I need to do is npm i -D webpack@next, right?

+ webpack@4.0.0-beta.2

Setting up A new React on Rails app with webpacker and full test suite

React on Rails with Test Suite (Karma, Jasmine, Enzyme, PhantomJS)

The steps included here detail the steps I followed to get a new React on Rails app set up, with a focus on testing JS components with Karma / Jasmine / Enzyme. A lot of this was liberally borrowed / modified from the Launch Academy curriculum, but there are some additional steps involved to get everything working with webpacker:

Unless otherwise specified, run the code in the terminal

Install Rails with Webpacker configured for React:

rails new project-name
cd project-name

Advanced SCSS, or, 16 cool things you may not have known your stylesheets could do

Advanced SCSS

Or, 16 cool things you may not have known your stylesheets could do. I'd rather have kept it to a nice round number like 10, but they just kept coming. Sorry.

I've been using SCSS/SASS for most of my styling work since 2009, and I'm a huge fan of Compass (by the great @chriseppstein). It really helped many of us through the darkest cross-browser crap. Even though browsers are increasingly playing nice with CSS, another problem has become very topical: managing the complexity in stylesheets as our in-browser apps get larger and larger. SCSS is an indispensable tool for dealing with this.

This isn't an introduction to the language by a long shot; many things probably won't make sense unless you have some SCSS under your belt already. That said, if you're not yet comfy with the basics, check out the aweso
