TypeScript library starter

A starter project that makes creating a TypeScript library extremely easy.

Usage

git clone https://github.com/alexjoverm/typescript-library-starter.git YOURFOLDERNAME
cd YOURFOLDERNAME

# Run npm install and write your library name when asked. That's all!
npm install

Start coding! package.json and entry files are already set up for you, so don't worry about linking to your main file, typings, etc. Just keep those files with the same name.

Features

• Zero-setup. After running npm install things will setup for you :wink:
• RollupJS for multiple optimized bundles following the standard convention and Tree-shaking
• Tests, coverage and interactive watch mode using Jest
• Prettier and TSLint for code formatting and consistency
• Docs automatic generation and deployment to gh-pages, using TypeDoc
• Automatic types (*.d.ts) file generation
• Travis integration and Coveralls report
• (Optional) Automatic releases and changelog, using Semantic release, Commitizen, Conventional changelog and Husky (for the git hooks)

Importing library

You can import the generated bundle to use the whole library generated by this starter:

import myLib from 'mylib'

Additionally, you can import the transpiled modules from dist/lib in case you have a modular library:

import something from 'mylib/dist/lib/something'
