## What it is
@pika/pack is a build pipeline tool that composes single-purpose plugins (wrapping tools like Babel and Rollup) to build npm packages for multiple environments. It generates the entire package output, including a fully configured package.json manifest with entry points like main, module, types, and unpkg.

## Use cases
- build an npm package for node, web, and typescript consumers from one pipeline
- generate package.json entry points automatically
- bundle a package with rollup without manual config
- compile typescript definitions from javascript source
- build a wasm package with js bindings

## When to choose
- you publish npm packages targeting multiple environments (node, web, unbundled esnext)
- you want zero-config builds via pre-configured plugins
- you want package.json manifest generation handled for you

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose application bundler rather than a package builder
- you need actively maintained tooling - the project has seen little activity since 2022
- your build needs fall outside the available plugin set

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: build-tool, package-manager, developer-tools
- domain: developer-tools, web-development
- platform: cli, cross-platform
- tags: npm-packages, build-pipeline, plugins, babel, rollup, package-json-generation, esm, javascript, nodejs
