qu-build

2.2.0 verified Sat Apr 25 auth: no javascript maintenance

Universal front-end build tooling based on webpack, TypeScript, Babel, and ES features. Current stable version 2.2.0 targets Node >= 8.5.0. Provides CLI commands for building, developing with hot reload, testing via Jest, scaffolding projects (vue, pages), and mock API support using Mock.js. Configuration is done via a custom webpack.config.js file that receives and returns the webpack config object. No recent updates; maintenance status unknown.

yarn add qu-build

pnpm add qu-build

Imports

webpack

wrong

import webpack from 'qu-build/lib/webpack'

correct

const webpack = require('qu-build/lib/webpack');

CJS-only package, no ESM exports.

default
```
const quBuild = require('qu-build');
```
Package exports a function? Not specified. Use CLI or require submodules.
quBuild
wrong
```
const quBuild = require('qu-build');
```
correct
```
import quBuild from 'qu-build';
```
ESM import works if used with bundler that understands package.json fields, but library is CJS-first.

Install CLI globally, then use commands for dev, build, test, and project scaffolding.

npm install qu-build -g

# start dev server
qu-build -d

# build for production
qu-build -b --hash

qu-build -t

# create vue project
qu-build --init vue my-project
