Adonis Flow

To start everything, run yarn and then open 2 terminals:

one with npm run dev (or adonis serve --dev --debug) the other for npm run babel:watch (or babel appFlow --watch -d app). When you make changes in any appFlow file (like adding new types or something) babel transpile it in to app folder, where adonis serve see changes, grab them and reload itself.

Please see this post for more information. Original implementation concept by @Dionid for original implementation and checkout the flow/static type checking adonis conversation here

TODO

There are a few things that can be done to make this work a lot better:

• Investigate the use of babel-node for development (as opposed to running two commands)
• More/better examples. Potentially flowify an existing adonis starter
• As per facebook/flow/issues#7014, implement some sort of module-resolver for resolving paths with the use() keyword in .flowconfig
• Look at static typing for adonis 5 and if it fits, figure out the best way to leverage whatever typing sysem is used for better compatibility.
