Learn Grep, Gulp and Redwoodjs

“a11y” stands for “accessibility.” It is a numeronym, with 11 representing the count of letters between the letter a and the letter y.

Accessibility is broken down into 4 categories of disability: visual, cognitive, auditory, motor. 

Regardless of the category of disability, accessibilities aim in web development is to make applications and websites usable for everyone.

In this lesson, we'll apply our `jq` skills and write a script that gets a list of dependencies from package.json and greps for usages of every package. If a package is unused, it's marked for removal. 

Use jq and grep to Find Unused Dependencies in a Project

A Unix command used to search files for the occurrence of a string of characters that matches a specified pattern.

grep

When you have a bunch of text to sift through, standard Unix command line utilities like `grep`, `sed`, `awk`, `cut`, `sort`, and `uniq` can help extract the information you want. For example, with a git log for a project, you might want to group commits by day in order to see which days you're most productive, or find out how many commits you made last year. In this lesson, you'll learn how to combine these commands with the pipe operator to extract this data from git logs.

Analyze Git Logs with the Command Line

In this lesson, we’ll use `grep` to find text patterns. We’ll also go over some of the flags that `grep` has that can be combined together to make it more powerful and easier to read.

Search for Text with `grep`

By grouping your searches with parentheses, you can create even more complex searches. Grouping lets you separate out different parts of your regular expression, and apply special characters like +, ?, and * to groups of search terms.

Search with groups using grep

Learn to use the xargs Unix command to combine find and grep. First we can use find to identify which files we want to search; then we can use xargs to tell grep which files to search through.

Search matching files by combining find and grep with xargs

What happens when you want to find things that don't contain a pattern? The -v flag lets you use grep in inverse mode. We'll use grep -v against find's output to exclude files in node_modules.


Find matches excluding a pattern with grep

Learn to use git grep to only search through the tracked files in a git repo. This is especially useful when you want to exclude build artifacts or locally installed dependencies, such as webpack bundles or the node_modules directory. You'll also note that git grep is automatically colorized - we'll see how to get the same coloring effect with grep --color.

Search the contents of a git repository with git grep

By default, grep displays the file path and the line where a match is found. Learn to use the flags -A, -B, -C, and -n to get more context, and view line numbers as well as the lines surrounding a pattern match.


Show context around matches using grep

By using wildcards and glob patterns with the special characters . and *, you can create regular expressions that describe what kind of text you're looking for, instead of just plaintext strings. 

Search for basic patterns using grep

Learn to use grep's extended regular expressions to describe more complex patterns. The `?` and `+` special characters describe optional patterns. The `?` character matches zero or one instance of the preceding term, and the `+` character matches one or more instances of the preceding term. To use these characters, you'll need to either escape them with backslashes or turn on extended regular expressions with the `-E` flag.

Use grep's extended regular expressions to find complex patterns

Learn to use the special anchor characters `^` and `$` to indicate the beginning and end of lines when writing regular expressions for grep. These line anchors are part of basic regular expressions in grep, so you don't need to escape them.

Specify line beginning and end in patterns using grep

You can describe classes of characters using bracket expressions. We'll use expressions such as [a-zA-Z] and [0-9] to search for alphabetic and numeric characters with grep.

Match classes of characters using bracket expressions with grep

Describe optional patterns with grep OR using the vertical bar character `|`. By using the `|` special character, you can write either-or style patterns. In this lesson we'll look for matches on "grey" or "gray". Like the `+` and `?` characters, the `|` character is part of extended regular expressions with grep, so you'll either need to escape it with a backslash, or use the -E flag.

Search for optional patterns with grep OR

Sometimes you'll be looking for a string, but won't know which file it's in; or you'll want to find all usages of it within a directory. Learn how to use grep -r to recursively search all the files in a directory. 

Search directory contents recursively using grep

Learn how to use find to identify filenames matching specified patterns. We'll use find to identify all .jsx files in a directory, or all test files in a directory.

Use find to search for filename patterns

 Learn the basic syntax for using grep to search the contents of a single file or files. It's like CMD+F, but better! You'll be able to quickly see all matching results in a file.

Search the contents of files using grep

CMD+F in your text editor can only get you so far! In this course, we will learn to use grep and find, two powerful command-line utilities, to search through and explore our codebase. Learn to search specific files and folders, using regular expressions to look for -- or ignore! -- particular phrases. We'll cover how to search recursively, get more context on your results, and some simple tricks to make your searches faster and more targeted.


Once you're familiar with grep and find, you'll be able to quickly answer questions such as: Do I use this function anywhere other than my tests? Where does this file get imported? Whether you're working on a new feature, reading a codebase for the first time, or refactoring existing code, grep and find can help you work faster and more effectively.

Use Grep for Fast Search from the Command Line

Gulp is a toolkit for automating painful or time-consuming tasks in your development workflow, so you can stop messing around and build something.

gulp

We will look at bundling your JavaScript files using Gulp, Gulp-Concat, and Gulp-Uglify

Bundling Your JavaScript Files with Gulp

Babel has support for the latest version of JavaScript through syntax transformers. These plugins allow you to use new syntax, right now without waiting for browser support.

babel

What is already a nice workflow using Gulp, Browserify, Watchify & Browsersync to enable auto rebuilds & live browser reloading can be further improved by adding Babelify. A simple wrapper around the popular transpiler Babel, Babelify can ‘transform’ source files as they pass through our stream to enable certain Javascript features not yet available in the Browser or Node. We end the lesson by looking at how to generate & extract sourcemaps using `exorcist`.

Gulp and Browserify - Adding Babel & Source Maps

Building upon the `watch` task that we begin this lesson with, we’ll look at how to create a local development server using the `app` directory as the web root. By using Browsersync to achieve this, we can also instruct all connected browsers to automatically reload each time our bundle is re-generated. Browsersync has a public `.stream()` method that is designed exactly for this purpose.

Gulp and Browserify - Adding Live Reload with Browsersync

Beginning with a single Gulp task capable of generating a one-time Browserify bundle, we enable file-watching and incremental rebuilds by incorporating Watchify. We add a second task `watch` & refactor our initial code to enable the bulk of it to be re-used. We’ll look at exactly how to ‘wire’ these tools together and how the relationship between Watchify & Browserify can manifest into a seriously efficient workflow.

Gulp and Browserify - Hooking up Watchify

TypeScript can sometimes feel like bunch of nonsense. But once you internalize a few key patterns, the type system starts to feel like a powerful tool instead of an obstacle.

Here are a few tricks that I’ve personally found valuable, especially if you’re working on a large codebase or building libraries.

---

## 1. Optional Keys vs Optional Values

There’s a big difference between marking a property as optional and allowing `undefined` as a value. These look similar:

```ts
type OptionalKey = {
  foo?: string;
}

type OptionalValue = {
  foo: string | undefined;
}
```

But they behave differently:

* `foo?: string` means the key `foo` might not be present at all.
* `foo: string | undefined` means `foo` is always present, but its value might be `undefined`.

Why this matters? The difference between them affects the way you use it:

* How you check if a property exists
* Function argument inference
* Serializing/deserializing data from external sources

### Example

```ts
function logFoo(obj: OptionalKey) {
  if ('foo' in obj) {
    console.log(obj.foo?.toUpperCase());
  }
}

function logBar(obj: OptionalValue) {
  console.log(obj.foo?.toUpperCase()); // May log undefined
}
```

As a rule of thumb, use `foo?: Type` (Optional Key) when the property might not be present, and `foo: Type | undefined` (Optional Value) when the key is always expected.

---

## 2. Pick and Omit for Object Key Manipulation

When you need to reshape object types by including or excluding specific keys, `Pick` and `Omit` are your go-to tools.

This type utilities are part of the language and are always available for your use, they are particulary useful when you need to derive types.

> Don't forget, Pick and Omit works over Object shapes

### Pick

```ts
type User = {
  id: number;
  name: string;
  email: string;
};

type PublicUser = Pick<User, 'id' | 'name'>;
// { id: number; name: string }
```

`Pick` is useful when exposing a public-facing API without leaking sensitive fields, it lets you choose what properties will be included

### Omit

```ts
type PrivateUser = Omit<User, 'email'>;
// { id: number; name: string }
```

Use `Omit` when you want to reuse a base type but remove some fields for specific scenarios, like forms or UI display logic.

These utilities keep your types DRY and consistent. Instead of redefining structures, you can derive them from existing ones, reducing duplication and potential errors.

---

## 3. Extract and Exclude for Union Filtering

Unlike `Pick` and `Omit`, which work on object keys, `Extract` and `Exclude` operate on union types, they are pretty similar in how the work.

### Extract

```ts
type Status = 'draft' | 'published' | 'archived';

type ArchivedOnly = Extract<Status, 'archived'>;
// 'archived'
```

Use `Extract` when you want to narrow down a union to only include specific members.

### Exclude

```ts
type VisibleStatus = Exclude<Status, 'archived'>;
// 'draft' | 'published'
```

Use `Exclude` when you want to remove one or more members from a union.


These are essential tools when refining API responses, filtering variants, or creating conditional logic that needs to type-check specific string literal options.

---

## 4. Loose Autocomplete

This is a different kind of trick, this one affects how your editor understand your types.

Sometimes you want to offer a set of suggestions to the user without forcing them to pick from a fixed list.

### The trick

```ts
type Variant = 'success' | 'warning' | 'info'

function setVariant(variant: Variant | (string & {})) {
  // ...
}
```

Now TypeScript will offer autocompletion for the variants defined in the `Variant` union, but will also allow  allow any other string.


`string & {}` is essentially still a string, but TypeScript treats it as a branded version, preserving autocomplete while keeping it assignable to `string`.

> [Here](https://egghead.io/blog/using-branded-types-in-typescript) you can found another article related to [Branded Types](https://egghead.io/blog/using-branded-types-in-typescript)

### Use cases

* Props with suggested values
* Config objects
* Third-party data with flexible inputs

---

## 5. Mapped Types for Smart Rewrites

Mapped types let you create new types from existing ones by transforming each property. This concept is a cornerstone of TypeScript’s type system and is covered more deeply in my article: [Learn the Key Concepts of TypeScript’s Powerful Generic and Mapped Types](https://egghead.io/blog/learn-the-key-concepts-of-typescript-s-powerful-generic-and-mapped-types).

You can consider Mapped types as some kind of function that transform a type in another by using all of the utilities and features of Typescript, like the above utilities and tricks, but also string literals, and more.

### Example: feature flags

```ts
type Config = {
  debug: string;
  logging: string;
};

type FeatureFlags = {
  [K in keyof Config]: boolean;
};
// This will create the following type
// { debug: boolean; logging: boolean }
```

### General Utility Type

```ts
type Booleanize<T> = {
  [K in keyof T]: boolean;
};
```

Mapped types are perfect for:

* Adapting backend responses
* Creating flexible utility types
* Rewriting shapes while preserving keys
* Enforcing contracts between layers

They’re also essential in combination with generics to create reusable type logic across your app or library.

> Found more about Generics in the following article [An Introduction to Typescript Generics](https://egghead.io/blog/an-introduction-to-typescript-generics)

---

## 6. The IIMT Pattern (Infer Inside Mapped Type)

This pattern unlocks the power of `infer` within mapped types, allowing you to extract and reuse internal type information from complex structures.

It dynamically inspects each property of a type (by using `infer`), and if that property matches a specific shape (e.g., a function), it extracts part of it.

This means you can build new types that are entirely based on the structure of other types without manually copying anything.

### The pattern

```ts
type API = {
  getUser: () => Promise<{ name: string }>;
  logout: () => void;
};

type ReturnTypes<T> = {
  [K in keyof T]: T[K] extends (...args: any) => infer R ? R : never;
};

// Result:
// {
//   getUser: Promise<{ name: string }>;
//   logout: void;
// }
```

Here, ReturnTypes iterates over each key in the API object and uses conditional types to check if the value is a function. If it is, it uses infer R to grab the return type of that function.

### How it works
- `keyof T` iterates over each key of the input type.
- `T[K]` accesses the value type at each key.
- `T[K] extends (...args: any) => infer R` checks if that value is a function. (consider this as a conditional block)
-  `infer R` captures the return type of the function.
- If the value is not a function, the fallback is never.

This pattern is composable—you can use it to build return type maps, argument type maps, or anything else you need.

```ts
type ArgumentTypes<T> = {
  [K in keyof T]: T[K] extends (...args: infer A) => any ? A : never;
};
```

This will give you a type with the argument list of each function in a mapped type.

You can use this in different situations like:

- Generating automatic schemas
- Building strongly-typed service clients
- Rewriting function maps
- Validating types without duplicating logic

If you’re building libraries or dynamic APIs, this pattern is a must-have in your TypeScript toolbox.

Once it clicks, it opens the door to expressive, scalable, and maintainable type logic.

AI Dev Essentials #8: Claude's Costly Lessons, Google's AI Flood & Workshop Alert 🚀

Claude Max Mode in Cursor is powerful but pricey—one vague task can rack up costs fast. Learn how to control it and explore the latest AI dev tools.

Debugging complex web forms can be a grind. You manually input data, check console logs, and painstakingly try to reproduce bugs. This lesson unveils a powerful, largely automated workflow using Cursor's AI agent in conjunction with the Playwright MCP to thoroughly test a web form, identify issues, and even fix the underlying code.

First, you'll see how to instruct the AI to instrument your form's code with exhaustive console logging. Then, by providing only the URL of the live form, you'll delegate the testing process to the AI, which uses Playwright to interact with the form in multiple ways, attempting to break it and discover edge cases. The AI then analyzes the generated console logs to produce a detailed report of its findings. Finally, armed with this report and the original code, the AI can attempt to fix the identified bugs and re-verify its changes, all while you "go get a sandwich."

**Workflow demonstrated in this lesson:**

*   Instruct Cursor's AI agent to add comprehensive `console.log` statements to your form's TypeScript (.tsx) file.
*   Provide the live URL of the web form (running on `localhost`) to the AI, without giving it direct access to the updated code file.
*   Direct the AI to use the Playwright MCP to open the URL in a browser.
*   Task the AI with devising and executing multiple test scenarios (e.g., empty submission, invalid inputs, mismatched passwords) to fill out and submit the form.
*   Have the AI retrieve and analyze the browser's console logs after each test attempt.
*   Generate a consolidated report detailing the form's behavior, observed errors, and potential bugs based on the logs.
*   Instruct the AI to use this report and the original form code (now brought back into context) to fix the identified issues.
*   Optionally, have the AI re-run the tests to verify the fixes.

**Key benefits:**

*   **Automated Test Execution:** Leverage Playwright through Cursor to automatically interact with your live form.
*   **AI-Driven Test Case Generation:** The AI devises different input strategies to uncover bugs.
*   **Log-Based Bug Reporting:** Automatically capture and analyze console output to pinpoint issues.
*   **Hands-Off Debugging:** Delegate the testing and initial bug reporting to the AI.
*   **Efficient Bug Fixing Cycle:** Use AI-generated reports to quickly guide AI-assisted code corrections.
*   **Focus on High-Level Direction:** Instead of manual testing, you guide the AI's testing strategy and bug-fixing process.

By the end of this lesson, you'll have a robust method for delegating the tedious aspects of form testing and debugging to Cursor's AI, allowing for more efficient development and a more reliable end product.

---

**Phase 1: Instrumenting Code with Exhaustive Logging**

**Context:**
*   `{@filePath}` (e.g., `App.tsx`) is in Cursor's context.

**Prompt:**
"In `{@filePath}`, add exhaustive console logging for all form events, state changes, and validation logic. Focus on capturing input values, current errors, and the outcome of validation checks. The goal is to have detailed logs for later analysis. Do *not* fix any existing code errors; only add logging. Stop after modifying the file."

---

**Phase 2: AI-Driven Form Testing with Playwright and Log Analysis**

**Context:**
*   `{@formURL}` (e.g., `http://localhost:5173`) is in Cursor's context.
*   The live form at `{@formURL}` should be running the version of the code that *includes the exhaustive logging* added in Phase 1.
*   Playwright MCP is available.

**Prompt:**
"Using the Playwright MCP and the live form at `{@formURL}`:
1.  Devise [N, e.g., 3-5] distinct test scenarios to fill out and submit the form. Include scenarios designed to trigger validation errors and edge cases (e.g., empty submission, invalid data types, boundary values, mismatched passwords).
2.  For each scenario:
    *   Execute the form interaction using Playwright.
    *   Retrieve all browser console logs generated during that interaction.
3.  Compile a consolidated 'Form Behavior Report' detailing:
    *   Each test scenario and the inputs used.
    *   Observed behavior/UI state (e.g., error messages displayed).
    *   Key console log outputs relevant to errors or unexpected behavior.
    *   Any discrepancies or potential bugs identified.

---

**Phase 3: Fixing Bugs Based on AI Report and Re-Verification**

**Context:**
*   The 'Form Behavior Report' from Phase 2 is in the chat history.
*   `{@filePath}` (e.g., `App.tsx` – the original file, *not* the one Playwright interacted with, unless it's the same deploy) is in Cursor's context.
*   The live form at `{@formURL}` can be updated/re-deployed with fixes.
*   Playwright MCP is available.

**Prompt:**
"Based on the 'Form Behavior Report' (from our previous conversation) and the code in `{@filePath}`:
1.  Analyze the reported issues and implement the necessary code changes in `{@filePath}` to fix them.
2.  After applying the fixes and assuming the live form at `{@formURL}` is updated with these changes:
    *   Re-run *all previously defined test scenarios* using the Playwright MCP.
    *   Retrieve and analyze the console logs for each.
3.  Provide a verification summary: confirm if the original bugs are fixed and if any new regressions were introduced."

Capture Browser Logs with Playwright MCP in Cursor to Generate Reports

Fixing runtime errors in web applications, especially those that require browser interaction or appear in stages, can be a tedious back-and-forth. This lesson demonstrates how to create a powerful, automated debugging loop using Playwright MCP integrated into Cursor IDE via custom Rules, allowing the AI to interact with your live application, identify errors, and iteratively fix them.

**Workflow demonstrated in this lesson:**

*   Install and configure the Playwright MCP server in Cursor settings.
*   Create a custom Cursor Rule (e.g., "autofix") instructing the AI to:
    *   Use Playwright MCP to open a specified URL in a browser.
    *   Check for any errors displayed on the page.
    *   Automatically attempt to fix those errors in your codebase.
    *   Iterate this process until all errors are resolved.
*   Invoke the custom rule within Cursor's AI Agent, providing the application's URL.
*   Observe the AI agent launch Playwright, navigate the browser, identify errors, and apply code changes.
*   For errors hidden behind UI elements (like an error button), provide a screenshot to the AI, instructing it to interact with the UI to reveal and then fix subsequent errors.

**Key benefits:**

*   **Automated Debugging Cycle:** Let the AI handle the repetitive task of launching, testing, and fixing common web application errors.
*   **Iterative Problem Solving:** The AI can tackle multiple errors sequentially, making changes and re-testing.
*   **Browser Interaction:** Leverages Playwright to understand the application's state directly from the browser.
*   **Visual AI Assistance:** Use screenshots to guide the AI in interacting with UI elements to uncover and fix deeper issues.
*   **Reduced Manual Effort:** Spend less time manually debugging and more time on feature development.

By combining Playwright MCP with Cursor's AI Agent and custom Rules, you can significantly streamline your web development workflow, turning a frustrating debugging process into an automated one.
