I know some of you have been disappointed by my last post about discontinuing the Liferay 7.2 Community Beta Program. I understand. It was also hard for us to let it go. But I do believe there is much better way to have an open discussion with you other than setting time constraints and strict rules. As you all know, Liferay Portal CE is an Open Source product developed in...

Your Liferay workspace is full of modules. Each module is starting to make use of the same JS resources and functions. Wouldn't it be nice if you could refactor your JS into a separate module that you can import elsewhere without publishing it to NPM? Well, here is one solution you can try!
