Package Exports
- jest-preview
- jest-preview/dist/index.js
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (jest-preview) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Why jest-preview
When writing tests using Jest, we usually debug by reading the HTML code. Sometimes, the HTML is too complicated to visualize the UI in our head. jest-preview initiates a server and serve your HTML in a browser, then you can see your actual UI visually, which helps you debug jest tests faster.
jest-preview is initially designed to work with jest and react-testing-library. The package is framework-agnostic, and you can use it with any testing libraries.

- ✅ Number of CSS-in-JS libraries, such as:
- ✅ Global CSS
- ✅ CSS Modules
