One line to safely minimize js files using sed(there will be single spaces left to not break variable assignment)
# Requires appropriate semi-colons
FILE_PATH=$(pwd); for i in $(ls $FILE_PATH/*.js); do sed -i 's|//.*||g; /\/\*/,/*\//d; /^\s*$/d;' $i && sed -i ':a;N;$!ba;s/\n/ /g; s/ //g' $i; done
# Before
# const os = require('os');
# function num(num){
# return 5 + num
# }
# // Sample Comment

better createContext APIs with setters, and no default values, in Typescript. this is documented in https://github.com/typescript-cheatsheets/react-typescript-cheatsheet/blob/master/README.md#context
// create context with no upfront defaultValue
// without having to do undefined check all the time
function createCtx<A>() {
const ctx = React.createContext<A | undefined>(undefined)
function useCtx() {
const c = React.useContext(ctx)
if (!c) throw new Error("useCtx must be inside a Provider with a value")
return c
}
return [useCtx, ctx.Provider] as const
