@arsonar/ui-build v0.4.0

#@arsonar/ui-build

A lightweight build tool for JavaScript.

Based on estrella, a lightweight and versatile build tool based on the fantastic esbuild TypeScript and JavaScript compiler.

This module adds:

• A simple live-reloading development server
• A way to copy assets recursively

Module usage

require { run } from '@arsonar/ui-build'
run({
  outfile,
  entry,
  assets,
  // ...
})

See estrella docs (above) for options.

CLI usage

ui-build [options] <ENTRY>

When called without arguments, the first file present in the following list will be used as entry file: main.js, src/main.js, index.js, src/index.js. The same paths are also checked for jsx, ts, and tsx extensions. By default the bundle is written to build/bundle.js. If the -c option is set, a folder called static or assets will be copied into the directory of the output file.
