## What it is
npm-run-all is a CLI tool (with run-s and run-p shorthands and a Node API) for running multiple npm-scripts in parallel or sequentially, with glob-like pattern support. It works cross-platform, including on Windows where shell-based parallelism with '&' fails.

## Use cases
- run multiple npm scripts in parallel
- run npm scripts sequentially in one command
- run all build:* scripts with a glob pattern
- run parallel npm scripts on Windows
- replace long npm run && npm run chains
- orchestrate build and test scripts in package.

## When to choose
- you need to run several npm-scripts with one command
- you want cross-platform parallel script execution including Windows
- you want glob pattern matching for script names
- you use Yarn and need child scripts invoked via Yarn

## When to avoid
- you only need to run a single script (plain npm run suffices)
- you need a full task runner with file watching or caching
- you need actively developed tooling with frequent updates
