I'm in the lucky position that our team is very productive and we've built a lot of amazing tools on NPM that developers for the most part love to use.
The manager in me likes to quickly get a picture of how the web is doing, and how the work that our team does is going, so I end up building a lot of dashboards. One area that was a frustration was that I would have to go through each of our teams NPM modules by hand and see how they are doing.
I've got thoughts on the post I did yesterday about ES Modules
I needed a quick way import a simple module get-urls into my project. The module is well tested and it does what I needed … ignore the fact that it’s pretty easy to implement in a couple of lines of JavaScript. The problem I had is that my project is built in ES6, uses modules and I didn’t want to have to bundle up using CommonJS (require).
I've been working on a way to make it easier to push content into my static site and it's been a fun little exercise that I will share more in another post. In this post I want to share the rollup config that I used to import nearly any npm module in to a frontend project using JavaScript modules.
