Build Instructions

This project uses daizong to manage scripts. You need to run scripts via npx daizong <script> or dz <script> (if you installed daizong globally).

Development

• dz dev starts dev mode, which watches and compiles all source files including test files.
• dz t runs tests in dev mode.

You can keep two terminal tabs during development, one for dz dev, the other for dz t.

Production mode

• dz build cleans, lints, compiles the project and runs tests.

Other scripts

You do not need to manually run these scripts. They are integrated into other scripts.

• dz lint lints the project using oxlint, auto triggered by dz build.
• dz clean deletes all build artifacts, auto triggered by dz dev or dz build.

No prepublishOnly

The prepublishOnly package.json script was removed as we now recommend using np to publish packages. np automatically runs npm test, which runs dz build before publishing.
