mkdist

Lightweight file-to-file transformer

✅ Copies all assets

✅ Supports Vue Single File Components

✅ Fast and minimal transform by esbuild

✅ .d.ts generation for .ts, .js and .vue files

✅ Support postcss (autoprefixer, cssnano and postcss-nested enabled out of the box!)

❓ Why?

Bundling libraries isn't always the best choice:

We lose original file structure
We lose modern syntax by transpiling in bundle
We lose critical-css by extracting css to a global dist (vue)
Dependencies will be always imported from bundle even if not used (a second bundling step might fix this but it usually won't happen in development and for dependencies with side-effects)

While there are tools like tsc and @babel/cli, they mostly focus on transpiling rather than keeping source level quality. Also they lack support for handling custom extensions like .vue and copying assets.

🚀 Usage
