# create-svelte
Everything you need to build a Svelte library, powered by [`create-svelte`](https://github.com/sveltejs/kit/tree/main/packages/create-svelte).
Read more about creating a library [in the docs](https://svelte.dev/docs/kit/packaging).
## Creating a project
If you're seeing this, you've probably already done this step. Congrats!
```bash
# create a new project in the current directory
npx sv create
# create a new project in my-app
npx sv create my-app
```
## Developing
Once you've created a project and installed dependencies with `npm install` (or `pnpm install` or `yarn`), start a development server:
```bash
npm run dev
# or start the server and open the app in a new browser tab
npm run dev -- --open
```
Everything inside `src/lib` is part of your library, everything inside `src/routes` can be used as a showcase or preview app.
## Building
To build your library:
```bash
npm run package
```
To create a production version of your showcase app:
```bash
npm run build
```
You can preview the production build with `npm run preview`.
> To deploy your app, you may need to install an [adapter](https://svelte.dev/docs/kit/adapters) for your target environment.
## Publishing
Go into the `package.json` and give your package the desired name through the `"name"` option. Also consider adding a `"license"` field and point it to a `LICENSE` file which you can create from a template (one popular option is the [MIT license](https://opensource.org/license/mit/)).
To publish your library to [npm](https://www.npmjs.com):
```bash
npm publish
```
