| Problem:
Prettier was not running when I saved Emacs buffers.
Why?
- prettier-js-mode needs needs node; lorri exposes node to direnv; direnv
  exposes node to Emacs; lorri was not working as expected.
Solution:
Now that I'm using nix-buffer, I can properly expose node (and other
dependencies) to my Emacs buffers. Now Prettier is working.
Commentary:
Since prettier hadn't worked for so long, I stopped thinking about it. As such,
I did not include it as a dependency in boilerplate/typescript. I added it
now. I retroactively ran prettier across a few of my frontend projects to unify
the code styling.
I may need to run...
```shell
$ cd ~/briefcase
$ nix-shell
$ npx prettier --list-different "**/*.{js,ts,jsx,tsx,html,css,json}"
```
...to see which files I should have formatted. | ||

Frontend Boilerplate
While many times I prefer using alt-languages like ReasonML, ClojureScript, or Elm, sometimes I prefer to write an application using TypeScript. This directory contains the necessary starter code to create these applications.
- React: Maps application state to UI
- React-Router: Stateful routing for SPAs
- Redux: Application state management
- TypeScript: Type-safety
- TailwindCSS: Styling library using utility classes
- Prettier: Source code formatting
- Jest: Test runner
