create-ts-library

This is a repo that setup the basic structure for my (and your) next typescript library. Simply fork it and start coding!

What it does

• Use typescript compiler to compile your library into:
  • lib directory for commonjs code to consume
  • lib-esm directory for es2015 code to consume
• Use webpack version 4 to bundle the code into:
  • bundle directory as an UMD module for others
• Setup npm scripts for easy build
  • npm run dev to compile to above directories
  • npm run dev:watch to watch the file changes (by nodemon) and run the build script
  • npm run build to generate minimized code for publish

Useful links

• Refer to tslint config for tslint configuration details
• Refer to nodemon config for nodemon configuration sample
• Refer to webpack config for webpack configuration details
