shipp

library0.16.4jsnpmunverified

Zero configuration front-end dev server that infers compilation pipelines from file extensions, routes from directory structure, and handles live browser refresh, hot-loading dependencies, and automatic bundling via webpack. As of v0.16.4, it is in early development (pre-1.0) with a focus on sensible defaults and minimal config. Differentiators include inferred routes, data mocking, database querying via Universql, and Dockerized microservice support planned but not yet implemented.

Debug

Known issues

gotchashipp is pre-1.0 and APIs may change without notice. Zero configuration may not work for complex setups.

fix

Be prepared to override defaults or migrate if APIs change.

affects: <1.0

breakingVersion 0.16.x changed the way data directories are handled. Object-based JSON now yields routes from keys instead of array-like enumeration.

fix

Review data folder structure: object keys become routes in v0.16+.

affects: >=0.16.0 <0.17.0
