Why my name is boowa

boowa is built with:

  • bankai - πŸš‰ - friendly web compiler
  • choo - πŸš‚ 4kb framework for creating sturdy frontend applications
  • awoo - πŸ”Έ declarative small site generator

so, boowa

API

boowa

Generate a new blog app in a empty directory

app structure

Actually a choo app yeah~, but you only need to handle markdown files and _config.json

boowa create

Run this command to generate a new markdown file contains the necessary structure, and it will build the html file automatically:

⚠️ Put content in markdown-body:

_config.json

This file contains metadatas like name, email etc.

boowa build

After edit _config.json or modify markdown files, run this command to generate new templates.

npm run start

Start a development server

npm run build

Compile all files to dist/

boowa serve <port | 8080>

Boowa has a simple built-in server , after npm run build && cd dist, run this command to serve the production code.

update the newest code

After install the newest boowa, run boowa in the boowa-existed directory, this update would not rewrite the markdown files and _config.json.

support offline locally

Service-worker works under https in production mode, so if you want to test the offline function locally, for chrome, run this command first:

/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Conts/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --user-data-dir=/tmp/foo --ignore-certificate-errors --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=http://localhost:port

You will see ServiceWorker registration successful with scope: http://localhost:port/ in the developer tool, if service-worker register successfully.
