What is modernizr-neue?

Modernizr-neue is the code behind the modernizr.com website. Modernizr itself is a widely used tool that helps websites detect what features a visitor's browser supports, and this repository is simply the website that promotes and distributes that tool. It's live and running today. The project is built in JavaScript and includes everything needed to run the site during development and then package it for production. When developers work on it locally, they can run a command that starts a local server on their machine. This server watches for changes as they edit the code and automatically refreshes, so they see updates immediately without manually restarting anything. For deployment, the project compiles everything into a static website. This means the final output is just a folder of files that can be hosted by virtually any web server. There's also an option to run the project's built-in server for production, which adds a few extra features: better file compression to make pages load faster, a download service for fetching dependencies, and support for text-based browsers that can't run JavaScript. This repository is aimed at people who want to contribute to or understand how the Modernizr website runs. That might include open-source contributors fixing bugs or updating content, or developers curious about how a project like this handles its public-facing site. The README doesn't go into detail on the site's content or design decisions, but it covers the practical steps for getting the code running locally and deploying it. One notable tradeoff is the flexibility in how it's hosted. You can deploy it as a simple static site for maximum simplicity, or use the included server to unlock extras like enhanced compression and accessibility features for script-less browsers. That gives teams a choice between straightforward hosting and a slightly more involved setup with additional functionality.
