Replace TypeScript source code + build step with ESM JavaScript and hand-written `index.d.ts` and make Constructor options extendable by plugins

[gr2m]

optimize the code of index.js and index.d.ts instead.

I think it would also be cool if plugins could extend the constructor options, so something like this would be possible

import { Base } from "javascript-plugin-architecture-with-typescript-definitions";
import { myPlugin } from "my-plugin"

const MyThing = Base.plugin(myPlugin)

const thing = new MyThing({
  myPlugin: {
    some: "option"
  }
})

By importing from "my-plugin", the constructor options for Base would be expanded with something a type for the myPlugin key

I'm not sure how to do this, but I think it's possible by merging interfaces?

I'd love to turn this into an episode for https://github.com/gr2m/helpdesk/ if anyone is up for it?

I think I can do this (I documented it for Jest) - should be this: https://jestjs.io/docs/expect#expectextendmatchers

I'll check it out!

Would you be available to pair on this next week Thursday (June 17th)? I usually do a show at 1pm pacific, but happy to do it earlier, whatever works for you

I can do it, I'll be a little off my game because I'm also a guest on a podcast earlier that same day I think

#51 was just the part of rewriting the source to a native ES Module and remove replace the TypeScript source with JS + index.d.ts

[gr2m]

That's done enough :)
