In early development
One command, one dependency and zero configuration to build your libraries.
Features
- [ ] Zero configuration with auto detection
- [x] SWC additional configuration (
.swcrc
) - [ ] Babel (
.babelrc
or other formats) - we should replace (or add one more step?) swc with babel when we found.babelrc
- [x] CSS

postcss.config.js
or any other pre-processor) - [x] SCSS, LESS, Stylus

my-file.module.css
) and global (any other) files
- [x] PostCSS (by default if we found
- [x] SWC additional configuration (
- [x] Beautiful TypeScript support
- [x] Builds clean TypeScript definitions
- [x] Support configuration:
baseUrl, paths, externalHelpers, target, sourceMap, experimentalDecorators
- [x] Multiple entries and outputs
- [x] Different outputs:
CJS
,ESM
(.mjs),UMD
- [x] Single or multiple inputs: file, array, globs and all together
- [ ] Out-of-box split output on multiple entries

Installation and fast setup
Install libmake with any package manager: yarn add -D @neodx/libmake
/ npm i -D @neodx/libmake
.
Describe your package.json:
{
main: 'dist/index.cjs',
types: 'dist/index.d.ts',
source: 'src/index.ts',
module: 'dist/index.mjs',
exports: {
'.': {
default: './dist/index.mjs',
require: './dist/index.cjs',
import: './dist/index.mjs'
}
},
files: ['dist', 'README.md'],
scripts: {
dev: 'libmake -w',
build: 'libmake'
}
}
And try to run our CLI: yarn libmake
Example of package.json minimal setup
{
main: 'dist/index.cjs',
module: 'dist/index.mjs',
scripts: {
dev: 'libmake -w',
build: 'libmake'
}
}
Known issues and limitations
Slow TypeScript definitions and CSS build time
We use rollup-plugin-dts
and rollup-plugin-postcss
,
both of them significant slow down the build time.
Probably, we will change our setup with other solutions or even with self-made plugins in future.
Limited CSS support - single file only, no imports in generated code
Unfortunately, currently we can't provide great CSS output :(
Supported features:
- CSS modules (
my-file.module.css
), global styles - Scss, less, stylus
- PostCSS configuration
- Minification
Unsupported:
- Multiple entries - see our "advanced-mixed" example
- Import statements in built code, which is required for DX with multiple entries
Temporal milestones
