Frontend Web Architecture: A Modular Monolith Approach

In order to get started, please refer to the the following article/post I have written:

• Frontend Web Architecture: A Modular Monolith Approach.

The Idea

A picture worth a thousand words! Here is a summary of what this project tries to accomplished:

TODO

And here the implemantion details:

TODO

Software Stack

• Vue.js.
• pnpm.
• TODO

Recommended nodejs version

• If you use asdf-vm as Version Manager, please check the .tool-versions file.

Recommended IDE Setup

VSCode + Volar (and disable Vetur) + TypeScript Vue Plugin (Volar).

Type Support for .vue Imports in TS

TypeScript cannot handle type information for .vue imports by default, so we replace the tsc CLI with vue-tsc for type checking. In editors, we need TypeScript Vue Plugin (Volar) to make the TypeScript language service aware of .vue types.

If the standalone TypeScript plugin doesn't feel fast enough to you, Volar has also implemented a Take Over Mode that is more performant. You can enable it by the following steps:

1. Disable the built-in TypeScript Extension
   1. Run Extensions: Show Built-in Extensions from VSCode's command palette
   2. Find TypeScript and JavaScript Language Features, right click and select Disable (Workspace)
2. Reload the VSCode window by running Developer: Reload Window from the command palette.

Customize configuration

See Vite Configuration Reference.

Local Development

pnpm install   # Install project dependencies
pnpm dev       # Compile and Hot-Reload for Development 
pnpm build     # Type-Check, Compile and Minify for Production       

Testing and Code quality

It includes, Static Analisys, Lint and Unit and Integration tests.

Run Tests with Vitest

pnpm test

Lint with ESLint

pnpm lint
