"scripts": {
"build": "theme-compiler [output directory] [additional less variables]"
}

"build": "theme-compiler dark --variant=dark"
}
To watch for changes while you are developing a theme, you can include the watch library.
npm i --save-dev watch
Modify you npm scripts to watch for file changes and recompile the theme.

"scripts": {
"build": "theme-compiler dark --variant=dark",
"watch": "watch 'npm run build' src"
