Development

Install depenendencies

npm install

or using pnpm

pnpm i

Build the source code

Run the following command to test and build code for distribution.

pnpm build

ESLint

warnings / errors check.

pnpm lint

Jest

Run all the defined test suites by running the following:

# Run tests and watch file changes.
pnpm test:watch

# Run tests in a CI environment.
pnpm test:ci

• See package.json file scripts for more info.

Run tests with coverage.

An HTTP server is then started to serve coverage files from ./coverage folder.

⚠️ You may see a blank page the first time you run this command. Simply refresh the browser to see the updates.
