# Node.js ES2015 compatibility tables
[node-compat-tables](https://williamkapke.github.io/node-compat-table/) is built on top of 
[Kangax's hard work](https://github.com/kangax/compat-table). The majority of the credit needs to be given to the contributors 
of that project.

Although [Kangax's compat table](https://github.com/kangax/compat-table) is amazing, it focuses on the entire 
Javascript ecosystem. As a Node.js developer- I, thankfully, do not need to be super concerned with all of the 
flavors out there. What I **do** need are deeper insights in the variations across the fast moving versions 
of Node.js. So, I created [node-compat-table](https://williamkapke.github.io/node-compat-table/).

It works by [running a script](https://github.com/williamkapke/node-compat-table/blob/gh-pages/test.sh) that imports the 
latest set of <s>ES6</s> ES2015 tests from the [compat-table](https://github.com/kangax/compat-table) project and running 
them against [several versions](https://github.com/williamkapke/node-compat-table/blob/gh-pages/.versions) of node PLUS 
[the nightly build](https://nodejs.org/download/nightly/). The results are committed/published here.

## Making change to the webpage
The webpage is hosted via GitHub.

The `build.js` file:
1) aggregates the data from the `/results` folder for the versions listed in `.versions`
2) uses `index.jade` to generate `index.html`

So, change `index.jade` then run:
```bash
$ node build.js
```

** Note: If a version is listed in `.versions` that doesn't have results generated in the `/results` directory, the 
column will be empty (all white cells- no text).

## How tests are run
2 schedulers run on Heroku:
One runs `bash versions.sh` (every 10 minutes) to generate the latest versions and saves them to `.versions`. The other
runs `bash test.sh` (once a day), which saves the results to the `/results` directory, rebuilds the webpage.

Both scripts push their changes to the Github repo when complete.
