Scala JS live server

Show me scala JS - I have 20 seconds.

Paste this into your terminal and hit enter.

scala-cli --version && \
cs version && \
git clone https://github.com/Quafadas/viteless.git && \
cd viteless && \
cs launch io.github.quafadas::sjsls:0.14.17

Note that to work, you need cs and scala-cli to be on your path.

Homebrew

It should (my first time at this, so be gentle) install via homebrew:

brew install quafadas/homebrew-sjsls/sjsls

This "tap" will download a scala-native compiled binary (zero startup time!) of the latest release of sjsls, and put it on your path as sjsls. You can also find it on github

sjsls --init test2
cd test2
code .
sjsls --styles-dir assets

If you're into vibe coding,

build a clock using scala laminar that rotates as the time changes

And watch the browser at https://localhost:3000 :-)...

It worked... okay... I have 20 more seconds

Edit hello.scala and save the change. You should see the change refreshed in your browser.

Aw shoot - errors

The command above assumes you have coursier (as cs) and scala-cli and git installed and available on your path.

If you don't have those, consider visiting their respective websites and setting up those tools - they are both excellent and fundamental to the scala ecosystem, you'll need them at some point ...

• coursier
• scala-cli
