# Decisions
|
|
|
|
A small document highlighting why certain choices were made.
|
|
|
|
## Typescript
|
|
|
|
- static typing
|
|
- stricter than normal javascript
|
|
- better visual studio code support than javascript
|
|
|
|
## Babel
|
|
|
|
- polyfill es6 modules to commonjs
|
|
- hooks in better sourcemap support for node
|
|
|
|
## Browserify
|
|
|
|
- required for nexe bundling (has a bug where bundling source fails)
|
|
- fixes the `Uncaught ReferenceError: exports is not defined` error
|
|
- far easier to setup compared to webpack
|
|
|
|
## Node.http
|
|
|
|
- can be modified to our specific needs
|
|
- no additional dependencies, overhead and complexity under the hood compared to frameworks
|
|
- eft requires special care in request/response handling (no compression headers, but data is zlib compressed)
|
|
|
|
## File naming
|
|
|
|
- emulates C# namespacing, which I prefer
|
|
|
|
## Drawio
|
|
|
|
- png diagrams are heavy, drawio diagrams are not
|
|
- allows for editing the diagrams later
