A slightly opinionated starter kit for developing React and/or TypeScript packages. It comes with a several pre-configured tools, so you could focus on coding instead of configuring a project for the nth time. From building to releasing a package, this starter kit has you covered.
👋 Hello there! Follow me @linesofcode or visit linesofcode.dev for more cool projects like this one.
npx degit TimMikeladze/tsup-react-package-starter my-react-package
cd my-react-package && git init
yarn && yarn dev
❗Important note: This project uses yarn for managing dependencies. If you want to use another package manager, remove the yarn.lock
and control-f for usages of yarn
in the project and replace them with your package manager of choice.
- ⚡️tsup - The simplest and fastest way to bundle your TypeScript libraries. Used to bundle package as ESM and CJS modules. Supports TypeScript, Code Splitting, PostCSS, and more out of the box.
- 🔗 Yalc - Better workflow then npm or yarn link for package authors.
- 📖 Storybook - Build UI components and pages in isolation. It streamlines UI development, testing, and documentation.
- ⚡️ Vitest - A testing framework for JavaScript. Preconfigured to work with TypeScript and JSX.
- 🔼 Release-it - release-it is a command line tool to automatically generate a new GitHub Release and populates it with the changes (commits) made since the last release.
- 🐙 Test & Publish via Github Actions - CI/CD workflows for your package. Run tests on every commit plus integrate with Github Releases to automate publishing package to NPM and Storybook to Github Pages.
- 📄 Commitizen — When you commit with Commitizen, you'll be prompted to fill out any required commit fields at commit time.
- 🚓 Commitlint — Checks that your commit messages meet the conventional commit format.
- 🐶 Husky — Running scripts before committing.
- 🚫 lint-staged — Run linters on git staged files
- 🖌 Renovate - Universal dependency update tool that fits into your workflows. Configured to periodically check your dependencies for updates and send automated pull requests.
- ☑️ ESLint - A linter for JavaScript. Includes a simple configuration for React projects based on the recommended ESLint and AirBnB configs.
- 🎨 Prettier - An opinionated code formatter.
Watch and rebuild code with tsup
and runs Storybook to preview your UI during development.
yarn dev
Run all tests and watch for changes
yarn test
Build package with tsup
for production.
yarn build
Often times you want to link
this package to another project when developing locally, circumventing the need to publish to NPM to consume it.
For this we use yalc which is a tool for local package development and simulating the publishing and installation of packages.
In a project where you want to consume your package simply run:
npx yalc link my-react-package
Learn more about yalc
here.
When you are ready to commit simply run the following command to get a well formatted commit message. All staged files will automatically be linted and fixed as well.
yarn commit
Create a semantic version tag and publish to Github Releases. When a new release is detected a Github Action will automatically build the package and publish it to NPM. Additionally, a Storybook will be published to Github pages.
Learn more about how to use the release-it
command here.
yarn release
When you are ready to publish to NPM simply run the following command:
yarn publish
❗Important note: in order to automatically publish a Storybook on Github Pages you need to open your repository settings, navigate to "Actions" and enable "Read & write permissions" for Workflows.
❗Important note: in order to publish package to NPM you must add your token as a Github Action secret. Learn more on how to configure your repository and publish packages through Github Actions here.
Import CSS files works out of the box. Simply import your CSS files in your components and they will be bundled with your package.
tsup supports PostCSS out of the box. Simply run yarn add postcss -D
add a postcss.config.js
file to the root of your project, then add any plugins you need. Learn more how to configure PostCSS here.
Additionally consider using the tsup configuration option injectStyle
to inject the CSS directly into your Javascript bundle instead of outputting a separate CSS file.
That's awesome! Feel free to add it to the list.
