Development

create-react-library and react-styleguildist

Local development is broken into two parts (ideally using two tabs).

First, run rollup to watch your src/ module and automatically recompile it into dist/ whenever you make changes.

`bash
yarn start # runs rollup with watch flag
`

The second part will be running the example/ create-react-app that's linked to the local version of your module.

`bash


(in another tab)


cd example
yarn install
yarn start # runs create-react-app dev server
`

Now, anytime you make a change to your library in src/ or to the example app's example/src, create-react-app will live-reload your local dev server so you can iterate on your component in real-time.
