Hey All! 👋 I'm the founder of Scaffoldly! I've put a lot of foundational tooling together for DevOps, such as SAML.to, eph.dev, and tfstate.dev my new project is making a monorepo that has a Node+Typescript+Lambda (or optionally a Python+Flask) backend and a React or Angular frontend packed into one project, pants seemed like an option to do the lift to run/deploy a monorepo however i hit a wall, the Javascript support seems beta/unsupported, (Typescript seems non-existent?)... if anyone has any advice, i'm all ears! 🙏

That's a pretty accurate assessment as of today. I think JS/TS is the next big language - and some basic scaffolding is in place and a bit of tooling (e.g. Prettier), but the tools to actually bundle code isn't there yet. I've got some low-key Vite stuff in a private repo that I need to get into get into the open, and it's what I use today for all my repos. The plugin itself is pretty small, since Vite does 90-95% of the work - and I'm just integrating hooks basically. Any suggestions, comments, PRs, or any/everything is more than welcome! 🙂 Here's a small discussion about it from last month. https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/discussions/17357

Hi @wonderful-spring-42111 👋 . The big blocker on adding JS/TS support is need for a partner with a driving use case and strong understanding of the JS/TS ecosystem. We need to make sure we're building support that's useful, purpose-driven, and adds to the existing ecosystem rather than just being redundant. If you'd be interested in being that partner to help us design and road test, that would be a big help in moving that goal forward!
