Advanced tools
An npm init module to create modules like I do.
This creates a hybrid TypeScript module, with tests set up to work using tap.
Default exports in CommonJS mode are supported if desired.
All source is in ./src, all tests in ./test.
Distribute to npm by running npm version <whatever>, and it'll
publish and push to git automatically.
The engines field in package.json is automatically set up to
restrict to the currently supported major node versions.
Uses the Blue Oak 1.0.0 license, a modern liberal non-copyleft written in understandable plain english.
A set of GitHub Actions workflows are included, which run tests
against all currently supported node versions, and some other
niceties to ensure that the repository field in package.json is
set properly, and that any copyright notices in the license
file have accurate years.
(Note: Blue Oak doesn't include a copyright statement, but if you switch to another license that does, then this will prevent some automated emails from various organizations.)
