## frontside-javascript

[![MELPA](https://melpa.org/packages/frontside-javascript-badge.svg)](https://melpa.org/#/frontside-javascript)

*JS development that just works™️*

Modern JavaScript development is so much more than just syntax highlighting, or even a language server. This package make sure that your JavaScript environment works "out of the box". This means:

* JavaScript, TypeScript, plus support for JSX, TSX, and MDX

* Code navigation and refactoring

* Support for [NodeJS][] and executables in `node_modules`

* Automatically setup error highlighting with project-local tools like [ESLint] and Prettier.

> Currently, `frontside-javascript` uses [tide-mode][] for TypeScript and language server support. Like that project, we have our eye on [LSP-mode][], and when it's ready will migrate to use that system instead. For the time-being however, we've found tide to be the more consistently reliable alternative.

### Usage

Install the `frontside-javascript` and add a call to `(frontside-javascript)` somewhere in your init process. For example with `use-package`:

```emacs-lisp

(use-package frontside-javascript

  :init (frontside-javascript))

```
