create-react-ui-lib v1.1.0

Create React UI Lib

A CLI tool that bootstraps simple Vite template for painless React UI library development.

• Unopinionated: no default styling, mandatory ESLint, pre-commit hooks — bring your own stuff if you need it.
• Type definitions are extracted using vite-plugin-dts.
• Bundles to ES and UMD modules, generates sourcemaps.
• Uses Storybook or Ladle for docs which are easily deployed as GitHub pages.
• Optional ESLint with recommended settings for each of these plugins: typescript, prettier, react, react-hooks, jsx-a11y.

Getting started

Run the command:

npm create react-ui-lib@latest
