JS1K Development Harness
A collection of command-line tools for developing JS1K entries.
Installation
# TODO: upload to npm
Usage
Run the js1k executable. It provides three main subcommands:
js1k init
Creates a boilerplate js file that you can add your entry's code to.
js1k serve
Starts a web server that serves your entry inside the js1k shim. This will automatically minify your code for you (with uglify-js), and show the current size of your entry in the browser. It reloads and minifies your javascript on every request, so you don't need to restart the server when your code changes (just refresh your browser).
js1k build
Dumps your minified entry code to the console. You can submit this directly
to js1k, although you can probably still save a couple more bytes by editing
the output manually (removing var, etc).
