🛠 Usage

🧪 Development

🔨 Building for Production

npm run prod

📦 Exporting a Static Site

npm run export

⚙ Configuration

💨 Optionally removing Tailwind CSS (and PurgeCSS)

1. Remove all Tailwind imports in the src/global.pcss file
2. Remove these lines in postcss.config.js:

   1. const tailwindcss = require("tailwindcss");
      

   2. const tailwindcssConfig = require("./tailwind.config");
      

   3. tailwindcss(tailwindcssConfig),
      

3. Delete the tailwind.config.js file
4. Uninstall the tailwindcss package

⚡ Web app

Many of the fields in static/manifest.json (short_name, name, description, categories, theme_color, and background_color) are filled with demonstrative values that won't match your site. Similarly, you've got to take new screenshots to replace the included static/screenshot-1.png file. If you want, you can add app shortcut definitions for "add to home screen" on Android. Once you change theme_color, update the meta name="theme-color" tag in src/template.html to match.

The Apple touch icon, favicon, and logo- files (also all in the static directory) are created by placing the logo within a "safe area" centered circle that takes up 80% of the canvas's dimension. For instance, the constraining circle in logo-512.png is 512 × 0.80 = 409.6 ≈ 410 pixels wide and tall.

🗺 Source maps

This project base comes with source maps enabled during development and disabled during production (and exports) for the best compromise between performance and developer experience. You can change this behavior through the sourcemap variable in rollup.config.js.

I'm sorry, because of my skill level and the fragility of (the combination of) some of these tools, there are likely to be problems in this project. Thank you for bringing them to my attention or fixing them for me.
