This a small example to showcase a single page application (in this case using Preact) that makes no use of bundlers.

You just import the needed dependencies and write your app. No configuration, no boilerplate code. That's it.

Run it with:

npx serve

Done :)

Are you tired of

• having so much boilerplate code, or
• so many configurations,
• etc.

...when you simply want to create <YOU_NAME_IT> and run it on your browser as fast as possible?

That's what you would usually do, right?

import React from 'react';

/* TypeError: Failed to resolve module specifier 'react' */

The code above is not going to work on the browser, since importing by bare module specifiers is not supported (yet).

Let's get the dependency directly from node_modules then:

import React from '/node_modules/react/index.js';

/* ReferenceError: process is not defined */

Oops. We are not using Node.js, so process.env will not be accessible on the browser? :(

So, why not just use a CDN like UNPKG?
