Product Updates
Framework and Monorepos
Razzle
Razzle
While any framework can run on Layer0, we continuously add support for the tools that have pre-built integrations. This way you can quickly and easily get your project started, with minimal configuration. Recently we’ve added support for Razzle. Razzle provides the “awesome developer experience of create-react-app, but then leaving the rest of your app’s architectural decisions about frameworks, routing, and data fetching up to you. With this approach, Razzle not only works with React, but also Preact, Vue, Svelte, and Angular, and most importantly……whatever comes next.”
Monorepos
A monorepo is a (git) repository that houses multiple projects that can be independently versioned, built, and published. For faster code-test-debug cycles in your monorepos, we’ve improved the behavior of the Layer0 CLI to operate similar to Lerna and Yarn workspaces.
Sourcemaps
Sourcemaps
The ability to compress your application code and asset(s) comes with a performance benefit. But what happens when you need to debug code within those compressed files? Sourcemaps are a very powerful tool for debugging your code in compressed JavaScript and CSS files. Our streaming server logs now support sourcemaps, making it easier to debug stack traces, and simultaneously optimize your site for performance.
Routes.js Caching Statistics
Routes.js Caching Statistics
One of Layer0’s signature features is EdgeJS — World’s first JS-based CDN, which lets you directly control the Edge (or configure Layer0’s CDN) from your application code. Our recent update takes this a step further and now displays the caching statistics directly in the code of your routes.js file. Optimizing your cache hit rate has never been easier.
Alerts
Alerts
