https-localhost

I’m looking for contributors!

I would like to totally rewrite this package in a brand new version 5 and I’m looking for help!
With the right help I would also like to switch to an organization on GitHub for advanced features.

What we want to do

• Port https-localhost in TypeScript (from JS). I’m working on it and I would like to discuss the final structure of the module.
• Improve the CLI with option and config files.
• Evaluate if make sense to split into two separate packages: the CLI and the module. The new CLI may add new dependency and many users use it as module.
• Switch to more lightweight dependencies (possibly replacing express) to reduce the module size. Evaluate the remotion of less user features that have dependencies (e.g. compression, minify).
• Structured docs.
• Publish on brew.
• Improve the Actions: CI, Release, automatic dependencies upgrade and more.
• Write a VSCode extension that integrates this project into the IDE.
• Evaluate Deno compatibility support: lately, some tools for automatic rewriting of imports are coming out, reducing the burden.
• Optionally, implement a minimal UI (an executable with drag & drop) for users who are not comfortable with the CLI.

Who I’m looking for

• Stable maintainers, to discuss the project together and take design choices.
• Casual contributors, who would like to work on a feature or on a task, improve docs, optimize code or fix bugs.
• Testers, who can help us find bugs and verify the correct functioning of patches and new features.

What you need

• Ability to work in a team
• Patience, courtesy, and respect
• Desire to get involved and build something useful

Appreciated, but not required to contribute

• TypeScript/javaScript knowledge (but at least desire to learn it, of course!)
• Experience designing a module or a project implementation

What to keep away

• Presumption
• Claims (of money, power, or other benefits): it’s a free, open-source project

What I can offer

• All my thankfulness and gratitude
• A place in the Contributors section of the README.md (that will be created soon)
