Source maps are a vital part of modern web development, but the lack of a standard made it impossible for us to add new features or improve the debugging experience. This is the story of how we standardized source maps and how we continue to ship features through standards 📜 🧵

A JSON file representing a source map. The code contains:

{
  "version": 3, // Always the integer 3
  "file": "out.js", // Optional: name of the generated file
  "sourceRoot": "", // Optional: prefix prepended to each entry in "sources"
  "sources": ["foo.js", "bar.js"], // Required: list of original source URLs/paths (or null)
  "sourcesContent": [null, null], // Optional: inlined source text, aligned with "sources"
  "names": ["src", "maps"], // Optional: symbol names referenced by "mappings"
  "mappings": "A,AAAB;;ABCDE", // Required: encoded mapping data (base64-VLQ deltas)
  "ignoreList": [0] // Optional: indexes into "sources" considered "third-party"
}

Some time ago, @jonkuperman.com & @tchetwin.bsky.social had a dream for the JS engineers at Bloomberg to be more public about the cool JS work we have going on. That dream has come true - now we have a blog platform 🎉 (You'll see more articles over the next few days) bloomberg.github.io/js-blog/

Bloomberg JS Blog

The official Bloomberg JavaScript blog - insights, tutorials, and best practices from Bloomberg's JavaScript engineering team.
