yarn

Scripts

When you load all dependencies, you able to run several commands:

• yarn build - produces production pack of library under the lib folder
• yarn run-dev - produces development version of your library, runs file watcher and http server on http://localhost:3005
• yarn watch - produces development version of your library, runs a file watcher
• yarn test - runs the tests

Structure

• Root folder
  • dev/ - Folder, containing development environment files. This folder is published with yarn run-dev command. toast-me.js and taos-me.js.map files inside are generated by webpack watcher from /src folder. You are able to change files in both folders and they are to be reloaded in browser.
  • lib/ - The place production pack will be located after build. Usually you won't need it, until you wan't to compile library by yourself and insert in your project manually
  • scripts/ - Node.js executable scripts' folder, such as dev-server.js or test.js.
    • config/ - Configuration files' folder.
