engindemirog/javaScriptStarterKit

★ 326 · JavaScript · updated Aug 2022

A bare-bones JavaScript starter kit built as course material for a JS class. It demos basic patterns like services, models, and a logging cross-cutting concern using vanilla JS. Not a general-purpose starter — this is a teaching scaffold.

- Separation of concerns is modeled clearly: models, services, components, and cross-cutting concerns are in distinct folders, which is useful for beginners learning structure

- Logging abstraction in crossCuttingConcerns/logging shows a concept worth teaching — wrapping console behind a logger is a good habit

- Small enough to read in one sitting, which is appropriate for its purpose as course material

- Abandoned since 2022 — no updates in nearly four years, so any tooling or dependency choices are stale

- 416 forks vs 326 stars signals this is mostly students cloning for coursework, not genuine adoption

- No build tooling, no tests, no bundler config — there's a package.json but it's unclear what it even provides; this is not a usable production starter

- The README is one line: 'Starter kit for my JS Courses' — no setup instructions, no explanation of what patterns are demonstrated or why
