4. Create .npmignore
Create an .npmignore file to exclude files and folders that should not be published to NPM. Example:

css
Copiar código
node_modules
dist
test
src/**/*.test.ts
src/**/*.test.tsx
.env.local
scripts
5. Compile the Project
Make sure to compile your project before publishing it. Run the following command to compile:

bash
Copiar código
npm run build
6. Publish the Package
To publish the package on NPM, make sure you're in the root of the project and run:

bash
Copiar código
npm publish --access public
7. Verification
Once published, you can verify that your package is on NPM by visiting the package page on npmjs.com.

Summary Steps
Create an NPM account: npmjs.com.
Log in to NPM: npm login.
Configure package.json: Ensure it contains all necessary information.
Create .npmignore: Exclude unnecessary files.
Compile the project: npm run build.
Publish the package: npm publish --access public.
Additional Considerations
Versioning: Each time you publish a new version of your package, make sure to update the version in package.json following semantic versioning.
bash
Copiar código
npm version patch  # For a minor bug fix update
npm version minor  # For a new feature update
npm version major  # For an incompatible changes update
Testing: Before publishing, ensure that all tests pass and that the package works correctly in different environments.
