• Hello World (JavaScript, TypeScript, and Angular)
• Blank (JavaScript, TypeScript, Angular, Vue, React, and Svelte)
• Drawer Navigation (JavaScript, TypeScript, Angular, and Vue)
• Tab Navigation (JavaScript, TypeScript, Angular, and Vue)

Releasing

This monorepo uses Lerna to manage packages and their releases.

Install the dependencies in the root of the repo with

$ npm i # or yarn

To list which packages have been changed since the last release

$ npx lerna changed

This will print something like this

lerna notice cli v3.14.2
lerna info versioning independent
lerna info Looking for changed packages since [email protected]
lerna info ignoring diff in paths matching [ 'ignored-file', '*.md' ]
tns-template-hello-world-ng
lerna success found 1 package ready to publish

To manually specify version for each package interactively run

$ npx lerna version

This should prompt the new version number for every changed package.

To release the packages, run

$ npx lerna publish

If you want to bump and publish at the same time,

$ npx lerna publish

will also prompt the new version interactively and then publish the package to npm.
