Frontend Bundling

Frontend bundling is a process by which your frontend source code, typically spread across multiple files, gets squished and transformed into few files, often just one file. This post will cover some basics around bundling.

ESM vs CJS

There are currently two main module formats in the JavaScript ecosystem: ECMAScript Modules (ESM) and CommonJS (CJS). CJS was first, but ESM is now the JavaScript standard and is the future. The main difference between the two is how they import files.

JavaScript Testing Packages

There are tons of options for test packages and frameworks within the JavaScript ecosystem, both on the backend and frontend. This is my knowledge dump of them.
