Drupal front-end nirvana with Vite, Twig and Storybook
We're proud to announce the release of vite-plugin-twig-drupal, a plugin for Vite that we hope will improve your workflow for front-end development with Drupal.
Front End Development
A powerful React + Redux Toolkit pattern (reuseable state slices)
If you need global state management for your app(s) (and you probably do), a relatively new flavour of Redux called Redux Toolkit makes this considerably easier.
Overview of our Front-end Stack
Front-end technology stacks tend to move quickly. At PreviousNext, we are constantly evolving the tech stack to take advantage of best practices.

Testing Twig templates and custom JavaScript with Jest
Jest is the defacto standard for testing in modern JavaScript, but until now, we haven't been able to leverage it for testing in Drupal. Thanks to twig-testing-library, that's changed.
State Library of South Australia
The State Library of South Australia is the state's largest public reference library with a collection focused on South Australian information and general reference material for information and research purposes. The library engaged PreviousNext to research their customers' needs and then design a new modern, engaging and accessible website in Drupal 8.
So many ways to hide
Generally speaking hiding content goes alongside a bit of javascript that unhides the content under certain circumstances (think hamburger menu). Sometimes the content improves accessibility but is considered visual noise (says the designer). So as the developer you have a lot of ways to approach this.
