You are doing amazing work Bobby. Thanks for this.

I would also love more collaborators on my project at github.com/mksunny1/deleight.

Deleight aims to provide all the cool framework functions like reactivity, good structure and other things that help to write more expressive JavaScript without compromising the freedom and power of Vanilla.

It is such a huge project and we need help for many things like:

Issues asking how to accomplish common 'framework' tasks with deleight,
Finding bugs,
Improving the docs,
Community help,
Writing code.
etc.

Contributions are very welcome from everyone no matter your level of experience in open-source. You only need to share our passion and dedication to making frontend development faster, easier and more stable.

This looks awesome! Thank you for sharing it! I just stared the project.

Btw the link that you've shared is broken, here is the correct one:

mksunny1 / deleight

A delightful set of libraries for creating modern web applications

Deleight

Deleight is a library now comprising 9 modules designed to improve expressiveness without compromising simplicity, performance, flexibility and sheer elegance of pure JavaScript. We achieve this by creating higher level functions, classes and objects which can get more done with less code than standard JavaScript primitives. These new utilities have been assembled into different modules based on functionality and dependency so that you can include only the parts you need in your projects. The whole architecture means you can benefit from more expressiveness without compromising the power and freedom of vanilla JavaScript.

Usage

import { apply } from 'deleight/dom/apply';
import { map, range, forEach, zip } from 'deleight/generators';
apply({
    main: (main) => {
        const newContent = map(range(101, 120), i => `My index is  now ${i}`);
        const lastChildren

Honoré SOKE • Oct 18 • Edited

Hello sir !
So i'm interested and also glad to discover hacktoberfest. I'm a first pull request doer. I'm just curious about something: Is it my PR that must be labeled hacktoberfest or the git repo ?

Thanks a lot for the post.

Ifeanyi Idiaye • Oct 9

Would like to contribute a chapter to the introduction-to-docker-ebook repo. The chapter would focus on how to deploy a docker container on Render.com.

NateDhaliwal • Oct 7

IIRC hacktoberfest.com was the website.
Also IIRC, they aren't giving out t-shirts this year due to many people signing up this year and the demand is too big. (Mentioned on the website)

Bobby Iliev • Oct 7

Ah yes, no t-shirts this year indeed! Thanks for spotting that!
