Hi!

With the recent final release of Page previews (Extension:Popups), we have also published a series of technical blog posts about the frontend tooling that we have used for developing this extension.

Master post: Extension:Popups (Page Previews) front-end tooling https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/phame/post/view/93/extension_popups_page_previews_front-end_tooling/

Table of contents:

- Automatic JavaScript file bundling and library consumption - Better minification for frontend sources - Fast and isolated JS unit tests - Conclusions

We hope this is interesting to read and hopefully useful to other teams or projects working on products with complex front-end needs.

We're more than happy to chat about these topics, or help you with these kind of workflows if you are interested.

Have a nice day! --- Joaquin - Jhernandez - JHernandez (WMF) Readers Web Team
