This is version 3 of the boilerplate, which makes significant changes to the build script and local development tooling. It replaces Webpack with Vite, which required some significant changes to how the local development setup works with Google Apps Script.
A new dev-server-wrapper.html file is used as the wrapper app in development, which is a standalone html + js file instead of a React app. This reduces the need for a complex build step for the wrapper app. Instead the file is just copied over for each entrypoing and the file location is changed with a "replace" step.
Due to the way Vite works, the html templates are changed a bit to support local development.
Vite doesn't easily allow completely separate multiple builds, so some Vite plugins and custom plugins are written to support multiple entrypoints (sidebars/dialogs). The externalization for large packages is now handled in the Vite config instead of a plugin, and by manually adding in the script tags into the index.html templates.
Additional changes here:
- yarn is now used instead of npm as package manager
- eslint configs are updated to support vite
- GitHub workflows for tests are updated to use yarn and other minor changes such as node versions and OS.
- A VS Code launch.json configuration is provided
- Dev wrapper setup has been updated (see above description)
- ES Modules (import/export) updated throughout
- Unneeded packages supporting webpack configurations are removed. Many packages have been upgraded. NPM scripts have been updated to use yarn.
- Removed `import React` due to Vite config.
- Added script tags to each template since webpack externalization plugin is no longer used
- Added <script type="module" src="./index.jsx"></script> to index.html templates to support Vite local development
- Changed src/server/sheets.js to .ts typescript as exemplar
- Updated tests to support yarn commands, Vite changes, and listening for Vite stdout triggers.
- Add Vite-style tsconfig.json
- README is updated

- Adds support for react-refresh through `@pmmwh/react-refresh-webpack-plugin`. Updated webpack config to support this. Means entire app is no longer refreshed on changes, only individual components, and state is maintained.
- React refresh removes need for `google-apps-script-webpack-dev-server` package
- In client code, support for server function autocomplete through use of gas-client 1.0.0. Requires certain files to be typescript .ts files
- Remove need for "global" exports in main server file through updated gas-webpack-plugin
