Make syllable work in browser?

[davidyang]

I wasn't able to make this work in the browser (because normalize-strings uses require).

I was able to browserify it but it was a bit tricky, the command I used is as follows:

browserify index.js -p esmify -s syllable -o syllable-browser.js

That creates a global variable called syllable that you can use like syllable.syllable(word). Not the most elegant but just wanted something quick and dirty.

Hi there!

We’re not yet in an place where dependencies can be used in browsers without a build step.

I suggest using esbuild, it’s fast: https://esbuild.github.io. Alternatively, indeed, browserify with a couple of steps.
