Release v0.2.0: Front-end Initialization and Project Re-structure to TypeScript

πŸš€ Major Changes

✨ Complete TypeScript Migration

  • Converted entire codebase from JavaScript to TypeScript for enhanced type safety and developer experience

πŸ—οΈ Modular Architecture Refactor

  • Restructured monolithic index.js into focused, maintainable modules:
    • src/cli.ts - Main CLI orchestration
    • src/utils/ - File operations, process management, and ASCII art utilities
    • src/frontend/setup.ts - Frontend initialization logic
    • src/project/scaffold.ts - Project structure creation
  • Improved separation of concerns for easier maintenance and testing

πŸ§ͺ Comprehensive Testing Suite

  • Implemented integration tests for end-to-end frontend setup workflow
  • Added error handling tests covering failure scenarios and recovery
  • Configured Jest for TypeScript with proper test environment setup

πŸ”§ Enhanced Development Experience

  • New development scripts:
    • npm run dev - Run with ts-node for development
    • npm run build - Compile TypeScript to JavaScript
    • npm test:coverage - Generate detailed coverage reports
  • Improved error handling with typed error messages and recovery mechanisms
  • Better process management for external command execution (git, npm, yarn)

πŸ“‹ Technical Improvements

Frontend Initialization

  • Enhanced frontend setup validation with comprehensive error checking
  • Improved directory reorganization logic with better cleanup on failures
  • Robust dependency installation with fallback mechanisms
  • Memory-aware configuration using w3b3d3v/create-polkadot-dapp template

πŸ› οΈ Breaking Changes

  • Entry point changed from index.js to dist/index.js (compiled output)
  • Node.js requirement updated to >= 20.0.0
  • Development workflow now requires TypeScript compilation

πŸ“¦ Dependencies

  • Added TypeScript development dependencies (typescript, ts-node, ts-jest)
  • Updated Jest configuration for TypeScript testing
  • Maintained backward compatibility for all existing functionality
