Documentation 📄

WARNING!
The package is in the early alpha version!

This package is based on the esbuild.
Esbuild is an extremely fast builder for web projects, written in GoLang.
I extended esbuild with its plugin API and created some internal plugins.
These plugins process .ts files, handle dependency injectors, unpack styles, etc.
