Shared Components between client and admin portal

The Library is published to NPM on the github build.

Deploying

• When the code is checked into Github it will publish it automatically if the package.json version is bumped.

Manual Deploy

Manually deploying is faster then committing the code as it doesn't need to create a ful build.

# Must build the Storybook dist folder before manually publishing
> npm run build

# Edit the package.json file and up the version.
> npm version patch --force

# Login if not already logged in
> npm login

# Publish your new library
> npm publish

# Update the library in other projects by running the following
> npm install pcm-shared-components@latest

# Or run the following to do it all in one go!
sh ./publish.sh

# Or you can also run the following npm to do it all in one go!
> npm run bump

# Update the remote Library

```npm run bump``` - This will bump the version of the library and push it to the remote repository.

## Environment (.env)

Copy `.env-template` and rename it to `.env`.

Create a granular access token at [https://www.npmjs.com/settings/tokens](https://www.npmjs.com/settings/tokens) with publish permission.

Place your token inside the `.env` file:

NPM_TOKEN=your_npm_token_here

The token will be used automatically during release and publishing.

# Future Migration TODO:

- Storybook Upgrade:
    - I tried to upgrade to the latest version of Storybook v10 but it needs react 18 which I'm not ready to do yet.
    - So for now i'm sticking with version 6.
- As for Vite:
    - because i'm on storyboard 6 I would need VITE v4 which is only supported on node 14-16 which I'm on v20. 
    - So for now I'm sticking with webpack 5.
- [email protected] target 18.x when possible
- refresh ESLint to version 8.x when possible
- Drop babel-eslint in favor of @babel/eslint-parser when possible
