What is Baleada?
Published over 5 years ago
Honduras's favorite food is the baleada—a fresh flour tortilla, spread with refried beans, then covered with scrambled eggs, mantequilla, queso seco, avocado, or meat, and finally, folded in half.
You can't have a baleada without its core ingredients and presentation (tortilla spread with refried beans and folded in half), but once those requirements are met, you can be creative and combine ingredients that suit your tastebuds.
Anyway, the Baleada we're talking about here is a toolkit for building web apps (and websites). Getting down to brass tacks, Baleada offers the following types of tools:
- UI logic
- Composables (a.k.a. hooks)
- Components
- Configuration utilities
Think of these tools as the ingredients in a savory, delectable baleada. You're encouraged to take what you want and sprinkle it into the stack you're already using to build your apps and websites. You're free to take just a few things, but if you're so inclined, you can really pile on the extras!
