This is a template NPM package repository. Get started with the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/Antman261/npm-package-template.git my-package
cd my-package
rm -rf .git
git init
git remote add origin https://github.com/<YOUR USERNAME>/<YOUR REPOSITORY>
nvm use
npm i

Where my-package is the name of your package

Now you can begin developing your package!

• npm run watch Use this during development to run tests on change
• npm run build Build your library
• npm run build-docs Builds the documentation using TypeDoc and TypeDoc Markdown

Hosting your docs on GitHub Pages makes it easier to read the full documentation for your package. TypeDoc will generate markdown for your JSDoc comments. GitHub's Jekyll engine then parses and renders the markdown into HTML on their pages server.

Set up a GitHub Pages site for your package as a project site with the following steps:

1. Follow the instructions in the GitHub Pages Docs to set up Pages on your GitHub account or organisation if not already configured.
2. Go to your repository for this package on GitHub and click Settings
3. Click Pages
4. Configure the branch as main (or master) and the directory to /docs
5. Configure the remaining settings as per your own preferences

A basic CircleCI config is included in this template. It will install dependencies and run tests. Use this to ensure that pull requests from contributors pass tests.

1. Login to CircleCI with GitHub
2. Click "Projects"
3. Click "Set up project" for this repository and follow the instructions

Also consider setting up branch protection and requiring passing checks from CircleCI for pull requests.

You'll need to update the following files and properties to finish setting up your package:

• package.json => "name"
• package.json => "description"
• package.json => "repository.url"
• package.json => "author"
• CONTRIBUTING.md -- Update for your project
• LICENSE -- Add your name to the copyright notice or replace with another license.
• README.md -- Time to update the file you're reading! Add your own description and usage examples for your package.

After completing the above you can use npm publish to publish your package, complete with type definitions and docs.
