## 🛠 Development

- `npm run start:src` — dev server for the `src/` test project
- `npm run build` — regenerate `lib/` from `src/` and re-sync `packages/*`

<br>

## 📦 Publishing

Each package publishes independently to npm. The `release:*` scripts auto-bump the patch version (e.g. `0.5.65 → 0.5.66`) and publish — no manual version edits needed. The bump is **not** auto-committed, so it lands in your working tree alongside whatever changes triggered the release.

| Command | Package | Path |
|---|---|---|
| `npm run release` | `mnfst` | (root) |
| `npm run release:run` | `mnfst-run` | `packages/run/` |
| `npm run release:render` | `mnfst-render` | `packages/render/` |
| `npm run release:publish` | `mnfst-publish` | `packages/publish/` |
| `npm run release:types` | `mnfst-types` | `packages/types/` |
| `npm run release:starter` | `mnfst-starter` | `packages/create-starter/` |

Run only the scripts whose package you actually changed (`npm run release:all` publishes everything).

For a **minor** or **major** bump, run `npm version minor` (or `major`) inside the relevant package directory before publishing:
```sh
cd packages/render
npm version minor --no-git-tag-version
npm publish --auth-type=web
```

After publishing, commit the version bump(s) along with your changes and push.
