Developer Experience (DX)

[mgm1313]

I have created a list of items I wish did not cause any disturbance while working in our codebase. While some of them can be fixed, they require some time investment, while others need discussion on how to solve them. There are also some issues that may not be solvable with our current architectural choices, or are simply lack of knowledge on the developer (my) side. Let's discuss them together.

• That I need to remember to build our packages before running the web dev server
• Manually recompiling packages after code changes while using the dev server
• Compile code before being able to run tests
• That line references in error messages from tests don't point to the original (TS) file
• Have an easier way to reset the local database and apply all migrations (preferably one CLI command)
